L+M Development Partners, BRP Development, the Prusik Group and Taconic Partners developed The National Urban League project, a large mixed-use development on 125th Street in Harlem. The project is structured as a ground lease with the Empire State Development Corporation, a state public benefit corporation. The base of the 200-foot-high development contains retail, including a Trader Joe’s and Target, a new home for the National Urban League (including office space and a conference center) and the Northeast’s first civil rights museum.
There is also approximately 70,000 square feet of office space. The residential tower is accessible from 126th street and includes 171 units of affordable housing. A portion of the units are reserved for youth aging out of foster care, with social support provided by The Foundling, a venerable NYC organization.
