ABOUT US
Embedded within Albany, GA, the Harlem District radiated as an epicenter of Black enterprise and cultural dynamism.
Having historical significance, its streets wove a narrative that celebrated the resilience of a community. Anchoring this hub were cherished establishments: a distinguished Black-owned hotel, a pioneering beauty supply store, cherished tourist homes, and many more. All of these distinguished establishments were locations within the Negro Motorist Green Book.
Numerous Black-owned enterprises flourished inside the streets of the Harlem District, including grocers, pharmacies, restaurants, salons, barbershops, picture studios, and newspapers.
The district's resonance went beyond business, reflecting the lifeblood of the civil rights movement. The Harlem neighborhood served as a haven where beliefs developed because the footsteps of people who fought for justice and equality could be heard on its streets. Its legacy was written by a harmonic combination of culture, business, and history, guaranteeing that the Harlem neighborhood's echoes would improve Albany's history for all time.
