In 1962, the songwriters would see 17-year-old Heloísa Eneida Menezes Paes Pinto walk by this bar and occasionally stop in to buy cigarettes for her mother, inspiring the quintessential song of both Bossa Nova and Elevator Music, The Girl from Ipanema.
The street would be renamed for the lyricist. The bar would be renamed for the song.
