98.7 Kiss FM is broadcasting on Frederick Douglass Boulevard today between 113th and 114th Streets in Central Harlem. They are promoting the new branch for MetroPCS, which we blogged about a few weeks ago. To go along with their promotion, they are raffling off tickets to a reggie concert. If you want to win concert tickets, stop by! They will be there all day today!

I walk down 114th Street between Frederick Douglass and Manhattan Avenue all the time heading to Morningside Heights Park. When you take this walk, you see construction every where in this area. Just the other day I noticed the netting/scaffolding all over one particular lot was now down and the new structure donned a big banner with the words The Alycia. I checked out their website and according to The Alycia, this place will be condos with all the trimmings of a new home. The site also claims all units are SOLD, which is quite impressive given current market conditions. Maybe that explains when I walked by the other day, the big banner existed no more.

We’re not surprised folks purchased condos in this area and plan to move to Central Harlem. After all, HarlemCondoLife lives and blogs in Harlem. My only lingering question is when were these units sold – a year or six months ago? We called the real estate company representing this building for further details. No word yet. However, if you know something before or if they get back to us, please chime in.

With the temperatures continuing to dip at all time lows in New York City, what are Harlemites to do this coming holiday weekend? Well, if you feel like putting on some blades and going round and round in circles on ice, we have the perfect recommendation for you – Trump Lasker Rink in Central Harlem! That’s right! Harlem has their very own outdoor ice skating rink.

Take the 2/3 subway line to 110th Street and you are a few yards away or drive if you like. But this place is a winter wonderland without all the touristy fuss. When we visited the rink recently, the ticket lines were somewhat long to get in, however when you’re in the rink there is plenty of elbow space to move around on and off the ice. Also, if you want to take a rest from skating, you can do what we did…watch the miniature hockey players battle it out in the ice rink next door. Who needs to go to New Jersey to see the Devils. From our pictures here, we clearly have our own Devils to watch and root for in Harlem. Oh and the parents watching their kids…they’re fun to watch too! See you there!

Harlemcondolife.com reported about a week ago about a new place on FDB, between 112th and 113th. It seems like there is some chitter-chatter on the street and in the blog-o-sphere that this place is owned by Society Cafe and its called 79 Orchard? Hmmm. If that is the case, a big congrats to Society Cafe in Harlem for expanding its business presence. But we have one question, why is it called 79 Orchard? Someone tell us…..
We found out our answer. This new place on Frederick Douglass is actualy called 67 Orange Street and it is owned by the same owner from Society Cafe. Harlemcondolife checked it out and it is very nice. The drink menu is attractive as well as the people hanging out in there! Go by and see for yourself!
