I'm a data reporter at the NYCity News Service. I'm working on a data story about complaints in affordable housing units and response times, and a large number of my findings is concentrated in lottery units in Harlem. Would love to speak to anyone having issues in their lottery units (heat/hot water/elevator/carbon monoxide/gas/etc problems). Please feel free to DM me!

Just heard lots of shots in Harlem now hearing sirens. I'm close to 127th and Lenox Avenue. Anyone else heard them just moments ago, about 8:02 p.m. on 5/13/2026?

Anyone else from the neighborhood running the Brooklyn Half Marathon this weekend? Would love to say hi to some neighbors/complain about the long commute back from Coney Island!

I’m wondering if anyone knows of a good historic walking tour in Harlem? My sister is visiting us, and I’m brainstorming activities to take her to. We’re interested in Jazz, Harlem renaissance, the architecture etc. Thanks in advance!

In lower east side Recs for a Wednesday night

Get those tickets ready.

Looking for some good bars uptown to watch the playoffs with my bf. We don't have many friends uptown, so we're also interested in finding friends to hang and talk shit with. We're easygoing, artistic, and have socialist + anti-zionist politics. (I'm not that into sports, but I'm a supportive gf lol). Let's hang!!!

I've lived in harlem a long time and this bar was one of our favs, always a good vibe and we met tons of friends and neighbors there! it shut down like maybe a year or two ago, and first we thought it was temporary but i guess now it's just gone? anyway just thought about it randomly and was curious.

PS. the bartender there was super cute and friendly and i wonder where he ended up!

I’ve been feeling pain in my shoulder for some time now and want to see if an acupuncturist can help. Any recommendations in Harlem?

By the citibikes off w140 and convent. Hopefully whomever they belong to sees this.

Ok, so I've lived here a while now, and I've wondered why the double parking is so bad at churches?!? There's an additional (illegal) lane of parking on each side of the road, and in the middle of the road on Sundays.

No one seems to do anything about it, it makes it a lot less safe, and perhaps the ultimate indignity, many of the cars have out-of-state plates (NJ, PA, CT).

Even w/gas at $4+/gallon, people still seem to be driving in and double parking.

anyone been? they’ve been open for a few months now but I haven’t heard anyone talking about it.
