Once known as the center of New York City nightlife, the El Morocco was the place to see and be seen. Founded in 1931 by John Perona, El Morocco was a speakeasy turned supper club that attracted high-profile patrons like Marilyn Monroe, Joe DiMaggio, Elizabeth Taylor, and more. The club boasted a champagne room for private dining, iconic zebra-striped booths, and two orchestras that kept the crowd dancing until the wee hours. The El Morocco closed its doors in 1969, but its memory lives on.
