That’s actually an area called Harlem Subdivision, it’s been a pocket of black residence for years...


Yep. They recently put a sign to acknowledge the fact:

"Harlem" was the original name of Causeway Blvd. before the Causeway was built.

Neighborhood on other side of Causeway is known as "Shrewsbury", after Shrewsbury Road. Local R&B artist Tommy Ridgley (from the area) even wrote a couple of songs about Shrewsbury. Here's one:
