The then-U.S. Senator Warren G. Harding and Nan Britton met for an assignation at a New York City hotel on 30th Street near Broadway, where Britton claimed to have lost her virginity to him. Shortly after, the NYC Vice Squad raided the room, but they left after Harding identified himself as a Senator. Court records, including a guest register, confirmed their stay at this hotel located on 30th Street and Broadway, as mentioned in Nan Britton's book.
