The photo is not of the correct empty lot (though 2750 is very close). The actual lot is across the street on the east side of FDB and encompasses 3 empty parcels.
Have they renamed this part of Harlem yet with some catchy real estate friendly moniker like SoHa or like the “Piano District” in the South Bronx?
