Our quiet, comfy apartment is in West Harlem, an historic and special hood thats going through a gentrification transition. Many new, hip restaurants, shopping and entertainment are right outside our door as well as historic, original Harlem staples. Were across the street from Harlem Hospital and the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture.

BTW... apartment avail for shorter stays of than 1 month @ $1000 per week based on circumstances at the time. No daily rentals but additional days on a longer lease will be calculated based on the monthly rent

Our building is one of six that were constructed for Harlem elites back around 1960. Politicians, famous musicians and actors had and still have apartments here. Our building has a drive-up circle, rare-in-NYC, which is very convenient for car services; and a 24 hour doorman, security and maintenance staff.

Three efficient elevators whisk you up to the apartment with little waiting time. Theres an always a near-empty laundry room in the basement where youll also find vending machines and recycling bins and garbage disposal. all up to NYC sanitation standards.

The layout of our bright and airy apartment is old school size, so the rooms are ample. We face east and miss the noisy bustle of Lenox Ave. FYI: Lenox Ave (aka Malcolm X Blvd are the same street. Two names. One Street.)

In addition, our main windows face a big open space over the parking lot so the curtains can be open as much as you like. Other apartments are not in your face like in many Manhattan buildings. We love the eastern sunrise, the openess and the light it brings.

Our apartment is warm and lived in. Its not like a hotel room. Weve got lots of family photos, tchotchkes and well clear many of them before your arrive, but therell still be some on the walls. Theres a 42 HD TV with 5 channel surround audio in the LR and a 37 TV in the BR. Through our ROKU, both have access to premium streamers like NetFlix, HBO, and Hulu as well as ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, PBS, CNN, MSNBC and more. Everythings running on Spectrums high speed 600mb internet and all are included in the rent as well as gas/electricity. (in the summer, we must put a cap on electric well pay for as AC can really run up a bill. We always shut AC when not home in both BR & LR. And, at night, well close the BR door and keep AC on there, while turning off the LR AC while were sleeping. The apt cools down in about 10 mins.

The kitchen is complete with all the silverware, utensils, glasses, pots/pans, dinnerware and appliances youll need. Theres a full-size, two door refrigerator with lots of room for your food.
