Thresholds

A Health Center. A Public Urgent Care. Open 24 hours. Offering Primary and Urgent Care (not ER). Functions as a Cooling and Heating Center during extreme weather. A place where neighbors can sit and rest freely throughout the year. A little shelter in Central Harlem—a small dot. A place to take cover from the rain, cool off on hot days, and stay warm on cold days.

No one chooses when to fall ill. It can happen anytime—day or night, weekday or weekend. Often, we don’t even know the cause. In emergencies like car accidents, one would have to go straight to the only ER in Harlem. But there are also less critical, yet still urgent cases that require immediate care. For example, a child might suddenly develop a high fever that doesn’t go down, even after taking medicine and applying cold towels at home. Situations like this happen more often than we expect in life. This place is primarily meant to serve those kinds of needs.
