BESPOKE: THE 125TH STREET VIADUCT IN SPIDERMAN


Harlem Bespoke:  Marvel Comics has been filming in Harlem over the past few years and the newest movie trailer for Spider-Man in to the Spider-Verse appears to have also borrowed some concepts from uptown.  Based on the original alternate universe comic book source material, the new Spiderman named Miles Morales is one of the first afro-latino superheroes to be showcased in an original feature and pretty much reflects the community in Upper Manhattan on the west side.  Another Harlem design element can be seen with the elevated train zipping overhead since the curved architectural arch is an official landmark on 125th Street and no other station in the city has this particular detail. This groundbreaking film will debut in December but those who want more on the preview can see the trailer online: LINK
