Neighborhood traditions
You are staying in Central Harlem, which is a special and vibrant neighborhood. You're unlikely to hear any sounds of NYC traffic on our block, and on warm summer nights, neighbors will gather on Harlem's famous "stoops" (front steps) to share stories, refreshment, and music. During holidays, these same stoops are festively decorated--the neighborhood turns into a children's "trick or treat" block party on Halloween night!
