Area Description

Morningside Heights (MH)

Often referred to as the ‘Academic Acropolis’ or the ‘Acropolis of New York’, Morningside Heights lies not only on the highest point in Manhattan, but is also dominated by the intellectual scenery of Columbia University, Barnard College, Jewish Theological Seminary and many other schools. The neighborhood is delineated by Morningside Avenue to the east, Cathedral Parkway to the south and Riverside Park to the west. There are good public transportation connections, so the area is well linked with other parts of New York City.
Known as one of the quietest and safest neighborhoods in the past, Morningside Heights is becoming a vibrant hotspot due to increasing business ventures, numerous bars and coffee shops; resulting in the mushrooming of luxury Manhattan apartments. Landmarks of the district are the gothic Riverside Church and the Episcopal Cathedral of St. John the Divine that started in Byzantine-Romanesque design and continued in the French Gothic style. When completed, the building will be the world’s largest cathedral. This and other impressive buildings turn Morningside Heights into an unforgettable sight. Riverside Drive and Claremont Avenue house one of the most attractive and superb apartment rentals in NYC, making Morningside Heights a popular choice not only for students and professors inhabiting the area; but also for original New Yorkers.
