Description

The Cotton Club at 222 Joseph Ave was a combined construction restaurant, connected to other storefronts. 222 Joseph Ave was of brick construction, with two stories. Near the rear of the building, the construction becomes concrete, possibly in a basement. Today, the Cotton Club no longer exists. This structure’s original neighborhood was destroyed and rebuilt during Rochester’s urban revitalization projects in the late 1960s and early 1970s.
