Hi trying to clear other columns other then if 523 9th ave is in H,L,P,T,X,AA,AD. As you can see i also need to keep the data from 3 columns before the name 523 9th ave. If anything other then 523 9th ave is present i need to clear it from the range only E to Ad.

Excel Facts

What did Pito Salas invent?
Pito Salas, working for Lotus, popularized what would become to be pivot tables. It was released as Lotus Improv in 1989.
How about
VBA Code:
Sub zone()
   Dim i As Long
   
   For i = 8 To 30 Step 3
      If Application.CountIf(Columns(i), "523 9th ave") = 0 Then
         Range(Cells(4, i - 2), Cells(Rows.count, i)).ClearContents
      End If
   Next i
End Sub

Oops, I can't count. Also missed the fact that the last two sets are smaller.
Try
VBA Code:
Sub zone()
   Dim i As Long
   Dim Ary As Variant
   Ary = Array(8, 3, 12, 3, 16, 3, 20, 3, 24, 3, 27, 2, 30, 2)
   For i = 0 To UBound(Ary) Step 2
      If Application.CountIf(Columns(Ary(i)), "523 9th ave") = 0 Then
         Range(Cells(4, Ary(i) - Ary(i + 1)), Cells(Rows.Count, Ary(i))).ClearContents
      End If
   Next i
End Sub

That's because in your op, you gave the impression you wanted to clear columns if they did not contain "523 9th Ave", which is what the code does.
Can you please post some representative data of what you have & what the outcome should be.

How about
VBA Code:
Sub zone()
   Dim Cl As Range, Rng1 As Range, Rng2 As Range
   
   With Range("A4", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
      Set Rng1 = Intersect(.EntireRow, Range("H:H,L:L,P:P,T:T,X:X"))
      Set Rng2 = Intersect(.EntireRow, Range("AA:AA,AD:AD"))
   End With
   For Each Cl In Rng1
      If Cl.Value <> "" And LCase(Cl.Value) <> "523 9th ave" Then
         Cl.Offset(, -3).Resize(, 4).Value = ""
      End If
   Next Cl
   For Each Cl In Rng2
      If Cl.Value <> "" And LCase(Cl.Value) <> "523 9th ave" Then
         Cl.Offset(, -2).Resize(, 3).Value = ""
      End If
   Next Cl
End Sub
