HARLEM CDC’s La Marqueta mile plan Dubbed “momentous”

August 2, 2010 – (RealEstateRama) — In a study released Thursday, the Center for an Urban Future (CUF) embraced the concept of an open-air market under the Metro North tracks on Park Avenue from 111th Street to 133rd Street conceived and developed by Harlem Community Development Corporation (HCDC). HCDC’s La Marqueta Mile plan would work with a range of community, business and public entities to revitalize and extend the old La Marqueta from 111th to 116th streets into a broader vision to suit today’s times. Center for an Urban Future went so far as to call the plan “A High Line for Harlem.”
