Macomb's Bridge Library, NYPL

ver Houses, constructed in 1936, was the first federally funded housing project in New York City. We are proud to welcome you to the new location of our library, right across the street from our original space. Our new site is 3,500 square feet, and offers several new amenities, including an adult reading room, a teen section, a children’s room with skylight, a community room for programs, computers, and wi-fi access. The Macomb’s Bridge Library serves as a community hub for all ages, and is a committed partner to the community of North Harlem. We perform outreach for local schools, daycares, shelters, and senior centers. We collaborate with local partners to provide a diverse and inclusive array of programs for all ages. We hope that this new location becomes just as beloved as the old one in the years to come.
