☞ WALK: Old School Barber on Lenox


Harlem Bespoke has a love for old signage that has weathered the times so we were naturally admirable of the vintage Barber storefront down on Lenox and 118th Street. There's something about hand-painted signs and artwork that really never gets old to us. Barber pole stripes are also a cool reminder of past traditions. They were closed when we passed by on the weekend but we will try to get some better shots in the future. Nearest subways are the 2,3 at 116th Street. Photo by Ulysses

  4. We haven't referenced the actual park in some times but will keep that in mind. When referring to Mount Morris Park, it's usually the historic district that we are referencing and not the park itself.
