The Hot Spots
The restaurant scene in Harlem is thriving, and long-time residents and visitors
alike flock to the expanding range of eateries
along or near Frederick Douglass Boulevard. The Red Rooster, Lido, Sylvia's Restaurant and The Cecil are just a few of the
popular locally owned eateries in the area,
while mainstream brands like Red Lobster
(Orlando, Fla.) also exist in close proximity.
Bier Intl., near 113th Street, is Harlem's first
biergarten, and destinations like Shrine on

shopping closer toward the Harlem River,
and 116th Street offers more eclectic options,
from tattoo parlors to wine purveyors.
Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard pair live
music and cash-only cocktails.
Obstacles and Opportunities
According to a recent New York Times article, "The End of Black Harlem," many longtime residents are less than ecstatic about
the neighborhood's gentrification, which
causes property values and taxes to rise,
often forcing out families who have lived
in the area for generations. "Harlem's main
shopping corridors now have substantial
representation by mass-market retailers,"
Morris says. "Some people are upset because
they believe the neighborhood has lost its
flavor. I don't think it's lost its flavor, I think
its flavor is evolving, because the art gallery
scene, innovative food, music, cultural ferment and associated activities are exceptionally vibrant."
Development projects like the mixeduse center planned for atop the dilapidated
Victoria Theater (set to open 2019) are helping to ease additional retailers into the area.
And retail rent isn't unreasonable for New
York, either. According to the New York Post,
commercial rents in Harlem at this time last
year averaged between $65 and $279 per
square foot, compared to $3300 per square
foot on Fifth Avenue in midtown Manhattan. -Carly Hagedon
