REMEMBER: JIMMY'S CHICKEN SHACK ON SUGAR HILL



Harlem Bespoke: We looked up a few more original 1940s New York City tax photos of Sugar Hill and got a better closeup of Jimmy's Chicken Shack by 148th Street on St. Nicholas Avenue.  The iconic hanging fowl-centric neon sign is the one image that always comes to mind but the storefront of the jazz spot was also quite interesting because it was actually a circular shack.  Most in the neighborhood know that this is one of uptown's historic district and the shop address still remains today but currently has a restaurant within: LINK
