Retracing Jack Kerouac

15 Barrow Street, Greenwich Village, New York

The Barrow Street Ale House, as it is currently called, in the 1950’s housed the Cafe Bohemia which put up shows by progressive Jazz artists such as Miles Davis, Charles Mingus and John Coltrane. Kerouac loved to check out shows in here.
