The history of the first gated community.

In the 80's when there were a lot of homophobic attacks on people, a brilliant activist named Theodore Jones came up with the idea of an enclave for homosexuals.

A safe haven.

And it had fencing all around and controlled entry.

After he passed away from AIDS they named it after him:

"The Gay Ted" community.

That's why we call it a gated community now.
