The new Harlem's Children Zone building and restoration of West 129th Street appears to be going fully as planned these days. Walking by the site that is situated in a cul-de-sac within the St. Nicholas Houses, we noticed the construction crew still actively at work on the new building which appears to have topped off. This new $100 million 130,000-square-foot HCZ building will serve 1,300 children from K-12 with a priority to those at the surrounding housing project. Geoffrey Canada's latest addition to his notable charter school system will provide new jobs, health care for students, a Baby College to guide parents and also will restore the full length of 129th Street between ACP/7th Avenue and FDB/8th Avenue. There has been some local opposition to this development in the past but all seems to be moving forward. Read more about it in our past post:
