Selling New York – Features Harlem Yet Once Again On HGTV Tonight!

Selling New York   Features Harlem Yet Once Again On HGTV Tonight!

A friend to our blog let us know that an episode of “Selling New York” will air tonight on the HGTV channel with many Harlem businesses represented.

From what I am told, you can expect to see on this particular episode the very popular 5 and Diamond Restaurant on Frederick Douglass Boulevard, Cedric French Bistro located on 119th Street, and Harlem’s famous Make my Cake on 116th Street.

Here is a clip from an episode of SELLING NEW YORK.

Already a fan of HGTV’s “Selling New York”, “House Hunters” and “House Hunters International” we are especially looking forward to seeing “our Harlem” represented on this new episode of Selling New York.  FYI, this is the third time Harlem has been represented on Selling New York.  We here at HarlemCondoLife are not at all surprised to see more attention coming to Harlem.

Make sure to tune in tonight  to “Selling New York” on HGTV at 6:30pm.

Within the Walls: Exploring Hidden Spaces Spotlight Tour

I received an email from EveryBlock today informing  us that the Cathedral of St. John the Divine has scheduled a “behind-the-scenes” tour of Harlem’s famous Cathedral.  I started attending St. John the Divine 8 years ago after moving to Harlem and have always been fascinated by its magnificent gothic architecture, spiral staircases and the incredible altar.  I am excited to see these hidden spaces surrounding this beautiful Cathedral.  Please see a previous post I wrote about this famous Gothic Cathedral St. John the Divine many years back  Cathedral of Saint John the Divine in Harlem.

For the full description of the tour and additional information see the following:

This extended tour features “behind-the-scenes” climbs in both the eastern and western ends of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine.  In the East, descend into the unfinished crypt and then ascend Rafael Guastavino’s beautiful spiral staircase to incredible views high above the altar.  The western climb presents an amazing view down the entire length of the world’s largest cathedral.  Led by Senior Cathedral Guide Robert Bleggi.  $20.00 per adult, $15.00 per student/senior.  Space is limited to 15 people (12 years of age and older), and reservations are recommended.
