Bleecker Street

In the 60s and 70s Bleecker Street was the center of American bohemia.  Artists such as Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix got their start in clubs in this area. Bill Cosby did as well - yes, I said Bill Cosby...
Here Sam stands near signs for Bleecker Street.
There is a very sad Simon and Gafunkel song about the pain and sadness associated with the pains from the values of the bohemia movement.  Bleecker Street is the name of the song.  Sad...listen to it on YouTube.
