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.

    Expenses $486,588

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. 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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.

What this page reflects

The registration facts above come from the IRS Business Master File published 9 November 2026 and read 9 November 2026, for every organization at once. Returns through tax year 2024, the newest we have parsed for this organization.
