Landmark News

Join members of Landmark East Harlem in a visit to the site of Nieuw Haarlem, established when New York was New Amsterdam and centered around present-day 121st Street between Lexington and Third Avenues. We will see the landmarked Harlem Courthouse, Elmendorf Reformed Church, which traces its history back to the first church in Harlem, and the charming group of seven row houses called Sylvan Court. Before and after the village center, we will look at the Richard Webber Harlem Packing House, also a landmark, Harlem Art Park, and more! A virtual companion guide to the tour will be available at http://www.landmarkeastharlem.org.
It's that time of year! Join us on May 6th for another exciting Janes Walk Tour, presented by the Municipal Art Society (MAS).
