UPDATE: THE METROPOLITAN CHURCH 2023

Written by tourist_yp6g7u on . Posted in Blog.

Harlem Bespoke: One of grand local African-American churches went up for sale at 147-149 West 123rd Street for $6.25 $5.95 million in October 2019 and a contract is now out as of May 13th, 2022 and there is finally a new update on the sale. We received information from the broker that everything closed for $4.3M and the buyer was another religious organization.  

The Greater Metropolitan Baptist Church which is a 9,418-square-foot neo-Gothic church in the Mount Morris Park neighborhood is actually protected as an official New York City Landmark since 1994.  This means any new developer that comes in can not demolish the site but would have to make some sort of adaptive reuse effort either as a combined residential development or maybe even some sort of event space.  Everything out front would have to eventually be restored accordingly and maybe the stained glass will come back one day.  More details can be found on the broker site: LINK

SEE: SAKURA PARK IN BLOOM SPRING 2023

Written by tourist_yp6g7u on . Posted in Blog.

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.  Check out more on the history of West Harlem’s most hidden cherry blossom park in our past post: LINK
