few blocks from the African-American Civil War Memorial, a monument to African-American soldiers in that
conflict. The Black Cat is served by the U St/African-Amer Civil War Memorial/Cardozo stop on
the Washington Metro. It was founded in 1993 by a group of investors and quickly established itself as a venue for the growing indie rock movement; in addition, it sponsors dance nights and other events. The Black Cat is located just
a few blocks from The 9:30 Club, its main competition. It has a bar on the lower level, as well as several concert rooms, and a capacity of
