Harlem Branch YMCA

Organized in 1901 by Reverend C.T. Walker of the Mount Olivet Baptist Church as the Colored Men's Branch, this branch first started in mid-Manhattan. It was later moved to the Harlem area and its name changed in 1919 to the One Hundred-Thirty Fifth Street Branch. In 1933 it opened a new building, and two years later took the name Harlem Branch, which had been used by another branch until 1933.
