The Audubon Ballroom Management Corp in New York, NY, oversees the historic Audubon Ballroom, which was a popular dance hall located in Washington Heights. This venue gained notoriety as the site where civil rights leader Malcolm X was tragically assassinated on February 21, 1965.
Despite efforts to preserve the ballroom, it was ultimately demolished in 2004 to make way for the expansion of the New York-Presbyterian Hospital research facilities. In its place, a memorial to Malcolm X was established as a compromise alongside the hospital's new research center.
