this is my favorite gothic building in harlem.... the cornerstone reads Harlem Court House Erected A.D. 1881. The garret is the clock tower with six vaulted "towers" surrounding the central tower. of the six, two are ornate victorian bronze clock faces, and they are accurate to the minute according to my mobile phone....the subsequent clock faces are iron lightening rods as the building was, and still is, one of the highest points in the historic neighborhood....
