A new Center for the Community
In the early years of the Isle of Cuba, neighborhood saloons and dance halls often served as the "centers" of the Bohemian community. That gradually changed and, in 1907, the community purchased Hungaria Hall on Clark Avenue, near West 44th Street, and converted into Bohemian Hall, and later to Ceska Sin Hall and Sokol. It quickly became the community's new center. The above photo was taken in 1957.
