Additional Property Attributes

This 60 unit new development is located in Harlem, Manhattan on vacant formerly City-owned land. The new development includes a new central office for Harlem Dowling and a new satellite office for The Children?s Village, in addition to creating 48 one- and two-bedroom affordable apartments for area families and 12 studio apartments for youth aging out of foster care. The Children?s Village provides on-site social services for the emancipated youth. This new development serves as the headquarters for the organization Harlem Dowling and will include a satellite office for Children?s Village. The Harlem Dowling affordable housing development includes 12 studios, 12 one-bedroom units, and 36 two-bedroom units. The 12 studio units are located on the 9th and 10th floors with a resident?s lounge intended to foster a communal environment for youth aging out of foster care.

Former Use: The property was occupied by three conjoined, five-story residential apartment buildings with ground-floor commercial store fronts in the 1902-1989 Sanborn maps. The northern two buildings were no longer present and consisted of vacant lots, while the southern apartment building remained in the 1991 and 1992 Sanborn maps. The subject property was a vacant, undeveloped parking lot in all of the remaining Sanborn maps. Review of the City Directory listings revealed that the subject property was occupied by several residential tenants in addition to some commercial businesses in listings from 1927-1978. There were no occupant listings for the subject property available prior to 1927 or after 1978. Commercial occupants of the subject property included: Soul Stop Inc., a music studio, social clubs, beauty salons, a barber shop, a cleaners (2137 7th Avenue, 1956-1963), a temple, a realty company, and a printing shop.
