SEE: SAKURA PARK IN BLOOM SPRING 2023
Harlem Bespoke: Cherry Blossoms in Central Park are at peak bloom now but uptown’s own hidden Sakura Park by Riverside Drive and 122nd Street has traditionally been a bit slower in pace. We dropped by again on Tuesday this week and snapped the above photos which show the blossoms at a point 3 range from a scale of 1-5 in peak bloom. The rest of a the week is going to be pretty cloudy but the cherry blossom at the local Japanese Park should be in their prime by Thursday or Friday. On a side note, please do not let your dogs exercise unleashed at this park since the ground is being torn up in the middle at this point in the season. Fences have now been placed up along the main park of the park but there is a little walkway to the gazebo at the center on the north end.
