Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

UPTOWN GRAND CENTRAL IS A 501(c)(3) NONPROFIT DEDICATED TO TRANSFORMING EAST 125TH STREET INTO A THRIVING CORRIDOR THROUGH COLLABORATIONS WITH SMALL BUSINESS, RESIDENTS, AND NEIGHBORHOOD ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS EAST HARLEM

Activities or mission (Part I)

TRANSFORMING EAST 125TH STREET INTO A THRIVING CORRIDOR

  • Our Positive Workforce Clean Team provided supplemental sanitation along the East 125th Street corridor seven days per week. Our work in public space also included public art projects including the Grandscale Mural Project and We Are New York gate mural project, as well as our annual Winter Lights. We managed three public spaces across East Harlem including the 125th Street Plaza and two Open Streets and programmed them with activities including a year-round farmers market, compost collection, live music, exercise classes and a pop-up mobile library. We also hosted events that were open to the public at large, with the intention of bringing the neighborhood together and supporting our local small businesses, including the Harlem Night Market, Hot Chocolate Bike Rides, Back To Business Walks, Spring Into Fitness Sampler, Denim Day, four restaurant weeks and five community clean-ups.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
