Le Poisson Rouge (LPR) is an eclectic Greenwich Village nightclub that presents everything from Classical Music to Latin and Hard Rock. In 2021, they’ve been hosting a lot of parties.
The space was once The Village Gate where Latin and Jazz mixed together. Look for the sign above the street corner.
Thank you Le Poisson Rouge for sponsoring New York Latin Culture Magazine.

The Village Gate
Le Poisson Rouge is hallowed ground because the club took over the space of the historic Village Gate (1958-1994). That was one of places where jazz and Latin mixed together in the 1960s and 1970s.
In the 1960s DJ Symphony Sid (Sidney Tarnopol, 1909-1984) hosted “Monday Nights at the Gate.” Symphony Sid was the Jazz radio DJ who helped popularize bebop.
In the 1970s, Roger Dawson hosted “Salsa Meets Jazz.” Now legendary artists like Machito, Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri, Dizzy Gillespie, and Wynton Marsalis would get together to jam there
The old Village Gate sign still hangs on the corner of Bleecker and Thompson. Look for it on the second floor.
