  • A High Line for Harlem
    www.nycfuture.org JULY 2010 A High Line for Harlem A plan to turn a mile of empty space under the Metro North tracks in Harlem into a vibrant market for hundreds of local entrepreneurs could do wonders for a neighborhood lacking in affordable retail space and a city struggling to retain independent businesses 2 A HIGH LINE FOR HARLEM AT ITS PEAK IN THE 1950s, EAST HARLEM’s LA MARQUETA was home to over 500 mostly Puerto Rican vendors occupying space in five separate buildings stretching from 111th Street to 116th Street on Park Avenue. For decades the market figured prominently in travel guides, as residents and tourists alike would flock there to buy avocadoes, guavas, cassava, and tamarind—things you weren’t likely to find anywhere else in the city. That stands in strong contrast to the way things look today, when on a recent visit just two vendors were open for business and there was not a single shopper. Three of the original buildings no longer exist and another sits empty. If travel guides mention the market at all anymore, it is usually in the past tense, as the former “crown jewel of ethnic markets Off the CUF commentaries are published in the city.” periodically by the Center for an Urban Future.
