It is very goo to know what is going on. Now we just have to be aware of the gun battles in the streets.
Would like to attend…need some wholesome activities to lift up what is positive in our communities…spread cheer, joy and hope…
The very area of 125 that needs some light and holiday cheer isn’t getting any. Why? I’m speaking about 2nd Avenue to Madison Avenue. Second, Third, Lexington, Park and Madison avenues are neglected by businesses and the City. Can we share some holiday cheer with all denizens of Harlem including the tourists who frequent our Village of Harlem?
Stop building housing on 125 Street. Let it stay as our neighborhood shopping district. Lights originated from my childhood, growing up on 129 St.
I agree.
We are looking forward to honoring Barbara Askins and Iesha Sekou with our LED billboard truck at the parade this year! Look out for us!
I agree.
