Billie

The
historic Lenox Lounge has been in the Harlem community since 1939, serving as
the back drop for many jazz legends such as Billie Holiday, Miles Davis, and
John Coltrane. The Jazz Club also known as the Zebra Room was once used by the
Harlem Renaissance writes James Baldwin and Langston Hughes. It was also said
to be a hangout for Malcolm X.
The Lenox Lounge has been featured in magazines, music videos, photo shoots,
and motion pictures. In 1999 it underwent a costly restoration process to bring
it back to its original splendor.
