SexWorld Headed to Sex Shop Heaven

It's the end of a horny era for the North Loop (née Warehouse District). SexWorld, the landmark Minneapolis sex shop that opened there in 1993, will close for good this Sunday, employee Jay Limbacher confirmed to Racket earlier today.

"In recent months, it has been observed that SexWorld has been struggling to maintain stock and keep customers coming back," Limbacher wrote Monday night on Facebook. "So for those who have been regulars at the shop for late night cigarettes or sex-focused fun, it has been clear the end was coming sooner rather than later."

Racket contributor Patrick Strait authored this 2016 history of SexWorld for Thrillist, in which he documents: its founding by Dennis Buchanan and Robert Bonynge, the Dollhouse peepshows, the giant/saddled golden dong that once greeted visitors, the $5.9 million building sale that forced it to downsize nine years ago, and the generations of giddy smuttiness that defined its run. (SexWorld's home at 241 Second Ave. N. was sold yet again three years ago for $14.9 million.)

Now, as North Loop's yupster gentrification nears completion, only Runyon's, Deja Vu, Cuzzy's, the Monte Carlo, Bunker's, and Acme remain. Or, as one Racket tipster eulogized via email: "RIP, no more 3 a.m. dildos for the masses." Amen.

   A shelter-in-place order is in effect in Brooklyn Park after two state lawmakers and their spouses were shot by someone impersonating a police officer.
  Sources say Sen. John Hoffman and Rep. Melissa Hortman were shot.
  The shelter-in-place order is near Edinburgh Golf Course, and the at-large suspect is considered armed and dangerous.
