Harlem on the West Side starts at 125th Street and goes to 168th Street.
The area has traditionally been the home to many African Americans since
about the 1920's. Harlem has now become the become the cultural center
for the African-American community around the country.
It's reputation for drugs and crime motivated many of it's residents
to leave in the last 20 years. But Harlem has been enjoying a reputation
of a neighborhood is on the way back. Along with other parts of Manhattan,
Harlem is experiencing a re-birth. Many older building are being upgraded,
new malls and movie theatres are being built and new schools and parks
are being developed and added to the neighborhood.
These are streets of great brownstones that can be found in places
like Gramercy Park or the Upper West Side. Once the repairs have been
done it will have a considerable new appeal.
