The perfect time and place to establish and grow your business

Recently, the stage is being set for yet another urban renaissance –this time, a push from the City Council who in 2008 approved a comprehensive rezoning plan for Harlem. The rezoning aims to foster the growth of 125th Street as Harlem’s main artery for business and a premier destination for arts & entertainment. The plan accounts for the creation of new cultural destinations, mixed-use housing, and approximately 1.8 million square feet of additional commercial office, hotel and retail space.

There are also many available commercial incentives if you should chose to relocate your business to Harlem. These offer many advantages such as reduced rent or subsidized electricity costs, among others.

Practice your trade in New York City’s center of Renaissance

Stemming from the City’s Dutch tradition, the village of Haarlem was founded during the 17th C. The neighborhood’s population expanded quickly at the turn of the 20th C. due to the Great Migration which brought many Black Americans up from the South, and hence fueled the first creative boom for Harlem. A cultural movement was named for the creative period during the 1920’s-1930’s, the “Harlem Renaissance.”

Artistic talent has continued to flourish in the area which sponsors a great force for entertainment and related commerce. Each year, local attractions, festivals & fairs, draw more than 800,000 visitors into the neighborhood. Additionally, the local workforce comprises an impressive blend of diversity, talent, and taste, drawn in by Harlem’s great host of cultural & academic institutions.
