Harlem Bespoke: Neighbors were concerned when a sidewalk shed and demolition permits popped up at the historic Calvary Church on Edgecombe and West 140th Street earlier on in the season but apparently the protective barrier has since been removed. We took the above photo yesterday and everything appears to be clear out front but those same permits are still up. As previously mentioned, the beloved building was supposed to be part of the new
Dorrance Brooks Historic District which was officially designated in June but demolition had been approved earlier on back in April. Fortunately that paperwork had an expiration date set for
the end of August so everything appears to be safe for now.
