EAST HARLEM 125TH STREET BID

Neighborhood stakeholders and city government working together to build a stronger East 125th Street corridor.

The East Harlem 125th Street Business Improvement District (BID) serves the East 125th Street corridor, as well as blocks north and south from East 124th to 128th streets, and Fifth to Second avenues. We work in partnership with neighborhood nonprofit Uptown Grand Central.

Those yellow trashbags!

Our Positive Workforce Clean Team hits the streets seven days a week, and you see the results every time you see a yellow trashbag! We update the bag count here: 521 for the week ending September 12, which makes 19,254 our 2026 total so far.
