10 Things to do in East Harlem That You Shouldn't Miss
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, between 115th and 116th Streets in East Harlem, was an important Italian American parish in the early 20th Century when there was a sizable Italian immigrant community in the area. It is a beautiful parish church, which continues to thrive today.

I wanted to go to a Gospel church while in New York. This is in Harlem. We felt that everybody was happy to see us. The service was really really good. The singing was just exceptional. I can see this becoming my church if I move to New York. I took some video with my phone and I have not stopped watching them. I did not feel like a stranger at all.
