Harlem Car Service

We arrange prebooked rides throughout Harlem, including the 125th Street corridor, Morningside Heights and East Harlem. Community-board and planning maps draw neighborhood lines differently, so use the pickup address, venue entrance or cross street. Around 125th Street, Metro-North, subway and bus connections link homes and landmarks with campuses and airport routes.

We serve Central Harlem, West Harlem, Manhattanville, East Harlem, Hamilton Heights and Sugar Hill.

Central Harlem

Central Harlem pickups include the 125th Street corridor, Lenox Avenue, Marcus Garvey Park and nearby residential blocks. Central Harlem is often described as 110th to 145th Streets, between Lenox and Fifth Avenue. Community-board boundaries vary, so enter your street address or landmark.

West Harlem / Manhattanville

West Harlem and Manhattanville pickups include Broadway, Riverside Drive and the Columbia campus. Columbia describes Manhattanville construction across blocks from 125th and 129th Streets to 133rd Street, between Broadway and Twelfth Avenue, with additional work east of Broadway. Include the building and entrance listed for your visit or event.

East Harlem / El Barrio

East Harlem, also known as El Barrio, includes La Marqueta beneath the Metro-North viaduct on Park Avenue, the Museum of the City of New York, El Museo del Barrio and East River Plaza. A NYC planning report describes the area roughly between East 96th and East 135th Streets; maps use different boundaries. Enter your street address and entrance when requesting a ride.

Hamilton Heights & Sugar Hill

We serve Hamilton Heights and Sugar Hill around St. Nicholas Park, Hamilton Grange and City College. Include your address, destination and any stops in the ride request.

For a landmark pickup, enter the venue or station address and the entrance where you will meet your chauffeur.

Apollo Theater

The Apollo Historic Theater is at 253 West 125th Street. Current Apollo Stages listings also use The Victoria, at 233 West 125th Street. Check your event listing, then enter the venue name, address and event time in your ride request.

Metro-North 125th St Station

Harlem-125 Street station at Park Avenue and 125th Street serves Metro-North's Hudson, Harlem and New Haven lines. The accessible station connects with subway and MTA bus service, including the M60-SBS. Enter the station address and train arrival time, then follow the street-level pickup instructions. A black car booked ahead gives you a scheduled pickup after your train.

Columbia University

For Columbia's Morningside Heights campus, include the building, street address and entrance. For Manhattanville, use the specific building and entrance listed for your visit, then follow the pickup instructions for that address.

Marcus Garvey Park

Marcus Garvey Park occupies about 20 acres between East 120th and East 124th Streets, Madison Avenue and Mount Morris Park West. Give the park entrance and cross streets in your request. Frederick Douglass Boulevard and Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard are both two-way through the 125th Street study area.

We provide prearranged rides from Harlem to LaGuardia, JFK and Newark. Without meet and greet, airport arrivals meet at the arrivals curb at JFK Terminals 1, 4 and 8 and at Newark Terminals A and B. JFK Terminal 5 and 7 car service passengers take the free AirTrain to the Howard Beach car service lot. At LaGuardia, car service pickups for Terminal B are on Level 2 of the Terminal B parking garage, and Terminal C pickups are in the arrivals inner lane. Terminal A has had no airline flights since May 2026. At Newark Terminal C, your chauffeur meets you at the arrivals curb or in the Terminal C Garage, Level 3. The table compares airport and local trips from Harlem landmarks, the Metro-North station and Columbia University. Use the closest listed starting point for a reference, then enter your exact address and destination in the ride request.

Example prices from our booking engine, October 2026. Taxes, tolls and fees included; gratuity optional. Your exact price is shown before you book.

LaGuardia (LGA)

LaGuardia is the closest of the three airports to many Harlem pickup points; the route depends on your address and traffic. The table shows examples from the Apollo, El Museo del Barrio and Harlem-125 station.

JFK Airport

For a JFK trip, enter your Harlem address and, if known, your airline, flight number and terminal. A $25 meet-and-greet add-on brings your chauffeur inside the terminal with a name sign and luggage help. A separate dedicated greeter is $150 and waits inside the terminal, useful during construction or for a VIP arrival.

Newark (EWR)

We provide prearranged rides between Harlem and Newark Liberty. The Apollo-to-EWR example is 25.6 miles. We meet arriving private flights at JFK, Newark, Teterboro (TEB), Westchester (HPN), Republic (FRG), Long Island MacArthur (ISP), Morristown (MMU), East Hampton (HTO), Gabreski in Westhampton Beach (FOK) and Trenton-Mercer (TTN). Your chauffeur meets you in the FBO lobby, or planeside when the FBO allows it.

Harlem cab service can mean a street-hail taxi or a prearranged chauffeur ride. Yellow taxis accept street hails throughout New York City. Green taxis accept street hails outside the exclusion zone, including north of West 110th Street on the west side and east of East 96th Street.

For-hire vehicle rides are arranged through a base or app. To request a True North VIP car service, enter your pickup, destination, date, time and vehicle. A taxi is hailed or requested under taxi rules; a chauffeur ride is planned for a named pickup and destination. Rideshare apps are another prearranged option. Searchers looking for taxi service in Harlem, New York, Harlem taxi cab service or cab service in Harlem may want a ride they can schedule. For a prearranged car, enter the exact pickup, destination, date and time; at a venue or station, include the entrance or cross street.
