How community activists, police and residents drove down shootings in East Harlem Click For More

East Harlem was hit hard by the spike in shootings that accompanied the COVID-19 pandemic, especially near its public housing. From 2020 to 2022, the neighborhood contained one of New York City’s gun violence “hot spots” — blocks with 10 or more shootings within those two years — according to a Gothamist analysis of NYPD data. It was part of an overall rise in shootings as the pandemic destabilized antiviolence efforts and drove economic disruption and social isolation. Police recorded 11 shootings in the square block around NYCHA’s East River Houses on East 102nd Street and First Avenue, one of the city’s highest concentrations of gun violence.
