| Green Dot Jazz Club, and less formal and very popular establishment on Jackson Street in Seattle Washington. This ad is from the Northwest Enterprise newspaper. One of the nightclubs that flourished during the New Deal period and was characteristic of the gritty Jackson Street jazz scene was the Green Dot. President Roosevelt’s cash infusions put money in everyone’s pockets and the Green Dot was just the place for Jackson Street’s and Seattle’s lower-income residents to enjoy jazz music. A barber shop by day and a jazz parlor by night, the Green Dot took advantage of advertising space in the Northwest Enterprise to get the word out during the New Deal boom in jazz’s popularity. |
