Destinations Uptown (Powered by Harlem One Stop)
Destinations Uptown invites visitors to experience Harlem and Lower Washington Heights as dynamic cultural destinations—celebrating both iconic landmarks and the lesser-known places that give these neighborhoods their soul. From world-renowned institutions like the Apollo Theater, El Museo del Barrio, the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, and the Hispanic Society Museum & Library to intimate gems such as the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, the Langston Hughes House, Sugar Hill Children’s Museum, and community theaters and galleries, Uptown offers culture at every scale. Visitors can explore historic sites including the Morris-Jumel Mansion, Riverside Church, and the Little Red Lighthouse, then savor the area’s culinary richness at celebrated restaurants like Sylvia’s and Red Rooster Harlem alongside beloved family-run Dominican, Caribbean, and soul food spots, bakeries, and cafés tucked along neighborhood streets. Together, these experiences create an authentic Uptown journey—rooted in history, alive with creativity, and defined by unforgettable flavors and local stories.
