Bowery Ballroom

Bowery Ballroom

The Bowery Ballroom is a music venue in the Bowery section of New York City. The structure, at 6 Delancey Street, was built just before the Stock Market Crash of 1929. It stood vacant until the end of WWII, when it became a high-end retail store. The neighborhood subsequently went into decline again, and so did the caliber of businesses occupying the space. [http://boweryballroom.com/history.html] In 1997 it was converted into a music venue.

Right in front of the venue's entrance is the Bowery Station on the J line of the New York City Subway.

The club serves as the namesake of at least one recording: Joan Baez's "Bowery Songs" album, recorded live at a concert at the Bowery Ballroom in November 2004.
