: Re: Any advice on creating fictional locations in real places when writing historical fiction? I am currently working on a historical fiction novel set during the tail end of the Harlem Renaissance,

It's entirely common, and accepted, to do this sort of thing, in fiction, historical or contemporary, and it's trivial to find examples. There is no "big grey building near Regents Park" that houses Universal Exports, the covert Secret Service HQ in London, there is no 27th Precinct (the setting for the TV series Law & Order) in Manhattan, and so on.
