| 释义 |
The "South Oxford Tennis Club" was an athletic club and event space in the Fort Green neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. Founded in 1981 by Richard Northern [1], the club was located on South Oxford Street between between Atlantic Avenue and Fulton Avenue [2], and consisted of four courts and a main building for events [3]. Richard Northern leased the space from the city on a month-to-month basis, and in 1997 the city closed the club [4] and the club house was demolished in 2001 [5]. While it was in operation, the South Oxford Tennis Club was the only black-owned tennis club in New York City [6]. The club hosted parties, fund-raisers, fashion shows and free tennis clinics for kids [7]. Events that took place at the South Oxford Tennis Club include a Do the Right Thing themed voter registration event featuring a performance by Spike Lee's father, jazz musician Bill Lee[8], and a fundraiser concert for Mutulu Shakur featuring The Notorious B.I.G.[9] References1. ^{{https://www.nytimes.com/1997/08/31/realestate/housing-at-atlantic-center-nears-a-new-phase.html|title=Housing at Atlantic Center Nears a New Phase|last1=Oser|first1=Alan S.|date=31 August 1997|accessdate=19 March 2019|publisher=The New York Times}} {{AFC submission|||ts=20190219164433|u=Mozby|ns=118}}2. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2001/08/05/nyregion/neighborhood-report-fort-greene-game-set-and-match-for-tennis-club.html|title=NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: FORT GREENE; Game, Set and Match for Tennis Club|last1=Engquist|first1=Erik|date=5 August 2001|accessdate=19 February 2019|publisher=The New York Times}} 3. ^{{https://www.nytimes.com/1997/08/31/realestate/housing-at-atlantic-center-nears-a-new-phase.html|title=Housing at Atlantic Center Nears a New Phase|last1=Oser|first1=Alan S.|date=31 August 1997|accessdate=19 March 2019|publisher=The New York Times}} 4. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2001/08/05/nyregion/neighborhood-report-fort-greene-game-set-and-match-for-tennis-club.html|title=NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: FORT GREENE; Game, Set and Match for Tennis Club|last1=Engquist|first1=Erik|date=5 August 2001|accessdate=19 February 2019|publisher=The New York Times}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2001/08/05/nyregion/neighborhood-report-fort-greene-game-set-and-match-for-tennis-club.html|title=NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: FORT GREENE; Game, Set and Match for Tennis Club|last1=Engquist|first1=Erik|date=5 August 2001|accessdate=19 February 2019|publisher=The New York Times}} 6. ^{{https://www.nytimes.com/1993/12/26/nyregion/neighborhood-report-brooklyn-update.html|title=NEIGHBORHOOD REPORT: BROOKLYN UPDATE|date=26 December 1993|accessdate=19 March 2019|publisher=The New York Times}} 7. ^{https://www.nydailynews.com/scene-grows-brooklyn-fort-greene-magnet-young-gifted-black-article-1.751579|title=A SCENE GROWS IN BROOKLYN FORT GREENE HAS BECOME A MAGNET FOR THE YOUNG, GIFTED AND BLACK|last1=Millner|first1=Denene|date=9 March 1997|accessdate=19 March 2019|publisher=New York Daily News}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://digital.library.cornell.edu/catalog/ss:1334328|title=South Oxford Tennis Club, Aug. 4, 1989|website=Cornell University Library Digital Collections|publisher=Cornell University Library|accessdate=19 February 2019}} 9. ^{{cite news|url=https://medium.com/cuepoint/tupac-divided-soul-4fe3edbd5a42|title=Tupac: Divided Soul|last1=Hampton|first1=Dream|date=11 September 2014|accessdate=19 February 2019|publisher=Cuepoint}} |
