The Old Poospatuck Club, 773 St. Nicholas Avenue at 149th Street, Harlem, was the original name of St. Nick's Pub in the 1930s. In the 1940s, it was named the Sugar Hill Rendezvous by its new owner Charles Luckeyth Roberts or Luckey Roberts, the great stride pianist whose span on the keys was so wide and so quick, it's been said, because he had the skin between his fingers surgically cut. Later, in the 1950s, the club added opera to its repertoire; the new owners called it the Pink Angel, because, it's been said, it was a popular haunt for homosexual men. And lastly, since the 1960s, it has endured as St. Nick's Pub.
