One Morningside Park – Your West Side Story (Update)

Posted on June 5, 2013 by harlemcondolife | Leave a comment

It has been a couple of months since our last update on One Morningside Park , the new condominium development on West 110th Street and Manhattan Avenue. Comments are still coming in (both good and not so good) on previous posts while this building continues to go up at lightening speed. Below is a photo of the building (framed by orange line) from the North side angle looking downtown and towards the West. As you can see it is already a part of lower Harlem’s skyline. I believe from our previous posts, it will rise a total of 22 floors upon completion. That is the “Ariel” on Broadway showing in the background which is a soaring 37 floors.

A Broker (friend to HarlemCondoLife) informed us that he recently went to a courtesy preview of the building and they are going to have 69 units many with outdoor space and dirct views of Morningside Park and Central Park. The sales office will be open officially in late August. Stay tuned for future developments on One Morningside Park here at HarlemCondoLife.com.

Harlem welcomes U2 on recent visit to Red Rooster!

Posted on June 5, 2013 by HarlemGuy | Leave a comment

The band U2 visited Red Rooster in Harlem for dinner. Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. Tuesday night.

Details per the New York Post – Page 6.

“Sources tell us the bandmates rarely go out or dine together, and Bono was overheard telling astonished customers, “This is like the Last Supper.” U2 has been working on a new album, reportedly titled “Songs of Ascent” or “10 Reasons To Exist,” that producer Daniel Lanois says he has heard and is “big” and “amazing.” Bono was also overheard chatting with Dini von Mueffling, the co-founder of nonprofit Love Heals, which benefits the Alison Gertz Foundation for AIDS education in the fight against HIV/AIDS, for which the Irish rocker is on an unwavering crusade. An onlooker said, “Bono kissed her hand and asked her to take a video of the band with his iPhone as they hardly get to eat together.” Bono and The Edge also celebrated the 1,000th performance of “Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark” Thursday.”

Bringing us his true talent singing a flawless live version of On My Way To Harlem in Paris on June 2, 2012. This original song from his latest album “Be Good” (available on iTunes) takes on a whole new life when you see it performed live. The whole album is a jam. Jazz at it’s best. If you haven’t yet heard him perform live, do yourself a favor and catch him next time through. He performs often at Smoke Jazz & Supper Club in NYC as well as several other venues.
