SAVE HARLEM Save our Building Protect our Culture Petition sponsored by: SAVE HARLEM TENANT'S ASSOCIATION The undersigned are in full support of the Save Harlem Tenant's Association in its' efforts to STOP THE DEMOLITION AND DESTRUCTION of the property on Frederick Douglass Boulevard and 125th Street that is so firmly rooted in Harlem culture. The undersigned fully support the preservation of Harlem's business community, real estate and heritage. These buildings represent Harlem's Civic and Business Leaders, from Malcolm X to the first black architect, and house the sweat and tears from the oldest black-owned businesses that fought to make Harlem a community for the ages.

Harlem wont be the same if they tear this down. Stop trying to erase our history for more condos nobody can afford.
