Harlem Bespoke: Another abandoned gas station in the neighborhood was at 300 West 122nd Street on St. Nicholas Avenue but the site would finally be developed for residential use. Back in 2014, an original rendering was floating around which did not make the final cut but construction would start up by 2018 right after most of the block was demolished. There was also a parking garage building next door which was another testament to the car-centric past of the city and both relics are now gone. Everything has been finishing up recently and the new architecture is actually kind of cool with some major arches on the top level that are a standout: LINK
