The Rhythm Club was located at 61 Madison Avenue, below South Pearl. We believe, but we're not certain, that it was owned by an African American. In the Harlem newspaper New York Age, we found this brief description in the November 8, 1941 number:

You should see the new Rhythm Club. It is really the most beautiful little spot in the city or out of the city for that matter. Dorothy and Ruff should pat themselves on the shoulder for having such a fine piece of work done. Vernon Young who did all of the designing, color schemes and lighting, who is a native of Africa, imported the wallpaper from that country. The place will have the largest “Juke box” in the State. Slots boxes at the tables, no need to go to the box.
