HarlemView highlights often under-reported community issues in Harlem, Upper Manhattan and communities throughout the city where City College students live, work and play. Most of what you read, see and listen to here is reported and created by students in the Journalism Program.

The online publication was originally conceived as a project for the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY. It launched in 2015 as Harlem Focus, on Medium. The following year, The Online News Association recognized Harlem Focus as one of the Top 20 innovative journalism education ideas out of hundreds of projects submitted across the country.

Harlem Focus re-launched as HarlemView with a new website in Spring 2019. If you would like to get involved as a supporter or content contributor, please contact us at harlemviewccny@gmail.com
