West 125 St, Morningside Heights

125th Street is the center of historic Harlem. Get off the subway at 125th Street and head to the Apollo Theatre, home of the popular television show, "Showtime at the Apollo." More recently, the Gorillaz have performed here, and James Brown's viewing was held here, a line of his fans and impersonators and tribute bands snaking down 125th Street for several blocks. Consider taking a historical tour of the area - many Civil Rights leaders made this area their residence, including Langston Hughes.
