Garrett Warren, one of the boys missing in Harlem who later drowned in the Harlem River, is being laid to rest at a funeral set for Thursday. Warren, 13, went missing last month along with 11-year-old Alfa Barrie, who’s body was recovered from the Hudson River.
Services are being held at Unity Funeral Chapels in Harlem (2352 Frederick Douglass Boulevard). There will be a viewing from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. followed by the funeral service.
On May 12, Warren and Barrie, both students at Democracy Prep Middle School, went missing. After a week-long search, Warren’s body was recovered from the Harlem River on May 18. Barrie’s body was recovered under the Madison Avenue Bridge over the Hudson River on May 20.
Reports indicate that the boys climbed through a broken bridge close to the 145th Street Bridge. Police say the investigation is ongoing.

Harlem Bespoke: In celebration of Pride Month, HB will be revisiting some of the great history of uptown’s LGBT legacy that goes back to the Renaissance years. This article was previously published back in 2015 and reveals the range of diversity in Harlem seldom covered by the mainstream media.
Over the weekend, we caught up with some Harlem cultural history by watching Paris is Burning for about the 30th time and still wondered where the main ballroom in the film was located at within Harlem. There is so much going on in the amazing Jennny Livingston documentary from 1990 which showcase the underground ballroom scene of Harlem that one can miss out when the narrator mentions the Imperial Lodge of Elks at 160 West 129th Street. Viewers actually can see the taxidermy of an elk’s head up at the lacquered red balconies in many of the scenes.
Soon after, we walked by the aforementioned address just east of 7th Avenue and took the above photo which shows that the building still stands but now houses a religious institution. It would probably be feasible that the interior ballroom was actually intact nowadays since this would work for church seating but it is unclear if the interior still has the original details shown in the movie. Ballrooms have quickly disappeared in Harlem over the last few decades but at least this legendary location is still standing as a reminder of the great, diverse culture that has always been uptown.
The Yankees played the third game of a three-game series against the Seattle Mariners on the road last night in trying to complete a sweep. They were also looking to extend their overall winning streak to five games and had been on the plus side with eight of their previous 12.
The Yankees began the day at 34-23, in third place in the American League East, five games behind division-leading Tampa Bay Rays at 39-18, and trailing the second-place Baltimore Orioles (35-20) by two. Manager Aaron Boone’s offense had produced 10 runs in their games before last night, defeating the San Diego Padres on Sunday 10-7, and the Mariners 10-4 on Monday and by 10-2 Tuesday.
“It’s no small feat to throw up 10 more runs against that quality of a pitching staff,” said Boone. “Credit to these guys. They’re focused, they’re working. They’re communicating well and they’re convicted in their plans right now. It’s showing itself.”
Isiah Kiner-Falefa, who plays infield and outfield but started Tuesday in left field, had four hits and four RBIs in five at-bats, and Nestor Cortes earned his fifth win (5-2, 5.16 ERA) in 11 starts. But even with Kiner-Falefa’s superlative performance, it was reigning AL MVP Aaron Judge who garnered much of the attention by hitting his 18th home run of this season after hitting two on Monday to open the Yankees six-game West Coast trip.
The Yanks will start a three-game weekend series against the Los Angeles Dodgers tomorrow and return to the Bronx to host the Chicago White Sox Tuesday–Thursday.
The Mets conclude a three-game series at home at Citi Field against the Philadelphia Phillies this afternoon and begin a three-game set versus the Toronto Blue Jays in Queens tomorrow.
The Mets were 28-27 and tied for second place in the NL East with the Miami Marlins before playing the Phillies last night. The Atlanta Braves led the division with a mark of 32-23 and will host the Mets next Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
