East Harlem Preservation is a volunteer advocacy organization founded in 2005 to promote, preserve, and protect the neighborhood's rich cultural, architectural and environmental history. We also provide news and updates on large-scale development, displacement and other issues of public concern to residents and business owners in East Harlem/El Barrio and surrounding areas. Information is provided through a regularly updated website, detailed email bulletins, and an extensive electronic and photographic library.

East Harlem Preservation also conducts neighborhood tours, and helps coordinate public forums and special projects promoting the neighborhood's culture and history, and to more extensively document issues of local interest. Click here to learn more.

The website is also available to help promote the work of local neighborhood and block associations and cultural, educational, health, business, and environmental agencies, so send us information on upcoming meetings and events. Please also feel free to send us your comments and suggestions. Check back daily for important updates and alerts.
