  2. The Gaslight Cafe

    The Greenwich Village coffeehouse opened in 1958. Originally it was a "basket house" where unpaid performers would pass around a basket at the end of each set in order to be paid. The cafe became a gathering place for beatniks, artists, poets, and folk singers with a large variety of performances.
