services, and physical connections in northern
Harlem between 139th and 163rd Streets, Harlem to
Hudson Rivers. We have highlighted specific corridors to be studied
for planned intervention, including Frederick Douglass Boulevard,
Macombs Place, Lenox Avenue, 145th, 149th, 150th, 153rd, 155th and
159th Streets. Some initial ideas are: rezoning
to support a more diverse mix of uses; turning Macombs Place into a
landscaped boulevard with improved parks at both ends; and
developing the area under the 155th Street viaduct into a community
focal point with space for artists, a greenmarket and other types of
uses. HCCI and Harlem CDC are seeking community
input on these and other recommendations and look forward to
building a plan with broad-based support for implementation.
