Houdini in Harlem question

[Guest]

Does anyone know the exact address of Harry Houdini's home in Harlem, New York? I have seen in biographies that he bought a brownstone in the "German part of Harlem", but I can't find which street or building.

Any help?

Ms. Cousins beat me to the punch, but just to show you how far the mighty have fallen-

The building still there, now divided into apartments. A sign has been placed outside, noting this was Houdini's house. Heard a few years ago, the area had falled to urban decay, but a friend who visited there a few months ago,(during the day) said the neighborhood had improved..perhaps thanks to Mayor Rudy.
