HISTORY: Built originally as a vaudeville theater in 1905, The Alhambra played an important role in the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and 1930s, and in the jazz scene of the 1930s and 1940s hosting performances by Billie Holiday, Bessie Smith, Jelly Roll Morton, Duke Ellington, and others. It is the last of the great dance ballrooms from the swing era in Harlem.
