Russell Social Club, Russell Street

The celebrated Russell Club, later known as the PSV (Public Service Vehicle) Club, The Factory and the Caribbean Club, was built to replace this ramshackle old place, the Russell Social Club.  The new Russell Club on Royce Street was as big as the old Russell Street one, but more brutal in its design than the original.
