This two bedroom is located at 126th Street and Lenox Avenue, in the central part of the iconic neighborhood of Harlem. Going outside you will find yourself on a charming residential street lined with trees and other brownstones and prewar buildings. Two of Harlem's main thoroughfare, 125th Street and Lenox Avenue, are conveniently only a block away! On 125th Street you will find big chain stores such as American Apparel, H&M, the Body Shop or Old Navy, but also stores represent the unique Harlem character, such as the Hip Hop boutique Jimmy Jazz. To immerse yourself into Harlem's culture, walk 0.3 miles (480 meters) west to the Studio Museum in Harlem or the National Jazz Museum, catch a show at The Apollo Theater, the launching point for many renowned entertainers, and have dinner at one of Harlem's many soul food restaurants. The two most renowned are Sylvia’s Restaurant and Red Rooster, both located right across the street from your apartment on Lenox Avenue (500 feet / 150 m away). Sylvia's has served many famous faces such as President Barack Obama and Caroline Kennedy!

When people think of Central Harlem, the words “gospel” comes to mind, so take advantage of living in this neighborhood to enjoy Gospel music at one of Harlem's many churches such as the Abyssinian Baptist Church on West 136th Street. And for a place to relax with your family or friends, spreading a blanket or sheet down for a picnic is a wonderful way to enjoy Central Park, located less than a mile away (1.6 km).

From this location it is very easy to get to downtown Manhattan. Just take the 2 or 3 line at the 125 Street / Lenox Avenue station. They run all the way to lower Manhattan and even Brooklyn, through the Upper West Side, Times Square, the trendy Chelsea, the vibrant Greenwich Village and the Financial District! If you need to go to the east side of Manhattan, take the 4, 5 or 6 trains at 125 Street / Lexington Avenue station. The 4 and 5 trains offer express service and will take you to Grand Central Terminal in as few as 3 stops! New York is all yours to explore!
