Hamilton Heights is bounded by 135th street to the South, 155th street to the North, Edgecombe Avenue to the East and the Hudson River to the West and also contains the area known as Sugar Hill. This Manhattan enclave is well positioned to sustain the already growing popularity and re-discovery as a top residential neighborhood. It enjoys a healthy stock of affordable apartments with superior subway access to Midtown Manhattan, an abundance of greenspace and a grow-ing list of coffee shops, pubs and restaurants. Hamilton Heights is developing all the factors of an upscale neighborhood delivering them at a fraction of the costs to live in other Manhattan neighborhoods. In addition, other colleges have been building dormitories in the area. To the north, a 600-unit student dorm known as “The Towers” finished construction in June 2006 as an extension of the City College of New York on St. Nicholas Terrace. To the south, near 122nd Street, the Manhattan School of Music also built a dormitory in 2003. The Jewish Theological Seminary of America opened a smaller dormitory on 122nd Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue in 2006. In August 2009, at 135th St. and Convent Avenue, City College completed the construction of a new 135,000 sq. ft. School of Architecture and Urban Design building. The increase in student residences is one of several factors rapidly changing the character of Hamilton Heights, and has resulted in the opening of cafes and restaurants on Broadway, La Salle Street and Amsterdam Avenue to accommodate the population growth. Hamilton Heights has experienced significant gentrification since the mid-2000s. The neighborhood’s historic brownstones, spacious pre-war apartments and elegant townhouses serve a recent influx of young professionals, artists, and newly formed families who are diversifying the neighborhood. The neighborhood’s history, culture, and attitude coupled with its ongoing resurgence make for an exciting time to part of the West Harlem community Points of Interest The City College of The City University of New York (known more commonly as the City College of New York or simply City College, CCNY, or colloquially as City) is a senior college of the City University of New York, in New York City.

City College’s thirty-five acre Manhattan 7 413 West 145th Street Location Overview campus along Convent Avenue from 130th Street to 141st Street is on a hill overlooking Harlem; its neo-Gothic campus was mostly designed by George Browne Post, and many of its buildings are landmarks. CCNY was the first free public institution of higher education in the United States and also for many years has been considered the flagship campus of the CUNY public university system. Dance Theatre of Harlem is a ballet company and school of the allied arts founded in Harlem, New York City, USA in 1969 by Arthur Mitchell and Karel Shook. The company has not performed since 2004, however its Dancing Through Barriers Ensemble continues to do so. Karel Shook was the first teacher and ballet master of the Dutch National Ballet, from where he returned to the United States as co-director of the Dance Theatre of Harlem. The Dance Theatre of Harlem School offers training to more than 1,000 young people annually with a community program open to any child who wants to study dance. Its program is called Dancing Through Barriers. It accepts pre-school children up to senior citizens. The school offers specializations in children’s movement, European ballet, choreography, and musicology. It also has a program in Washington, D.C. for dancers to audition. If accepted the students work with Robert Garland. They have three levels: advanced beginners, intermediate pre-pointe, and advanced young ladies and men. The Harlem School of the Arts (HSA) is a school in Harlem, New York. It was founded in 1964 by the soprano Dorothy Maynor, and offers its programs to students of all ages. According to its website, the mission of the Harlem School of the Arts is “to enrich the lives of children and their families in the Harlem community and beyond, through exposure to and instruction in the arts.”[1] In 2005, the school was among 406 New York City arts and social service institutions to receive part of a $20 million grant from the Carnegie Corporation, which was made possible through a donation by New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg. The school offers courses in both classical and jazz music, with instruction in musical instruments and voice, as well as dance (including ballet, modern, ethnic, jazz, and tap dance). In addition, classes are offered in theater arts, and creative writing, and visual arts (including sculpture and photography).

Additional 8 413 West 145th Street Location Overview property was assembled in 1900-06, and park construction began in 1906. Like Harlem’s other “ribbon parks,” St. Nicholas was built on a rugged mass of rock, following the steep and irregular topography of northern Manhattan. Landscape architect [and Parks Commissioner] Samuel Parsons was responsible for the design of the rustic park, of which he said a “dominant note must be followed with a harmonious treatment, a high hill made higher, a rugged slope more rugged, a deep valley made deeper, thus invariably following nature’s lead.” The development of the park and the completion of the elevated rapid transit line made this area of Harlem a fashionable residential district at the turn of the century.

    BROOKLYN TRANSIT PRIMARY SOURCE PACKET Student Name 1 2 INTRODUCTORY READING "New York City Transit - History and Chronology." Mta.info. Metropolitan Transit Authority. Web. 28 Dec. 2015. Adaptation In the early stages of the development of public transportation systems in New York City, all operations were run by private companies. Abraham Brower established New York City's first public transportation route in 1827, a 12-seat stagecoach that ran along Broadway in Manhattan from the Battery to Bleecker Street. By 1831, Brower had added the omnibus to his fleet. The next year, John Mason organized the New York and Harlem Railroad, a street railway that used horse-drawn cars with metal wheels and ran on a metal track. By 1855, 593 omnibuses traveled on 27 Manhattan routes and horse-drawn cars ran on street railways on Third, Fourth, Sixth, and Eighth Avenues. Toward the end of the 19th century, electricity allowed for the development of electric trolley cars, which soon replaced horses. Trolley bus lines, also called trackless trolley coaches, used overhead lines for power. Staten Island was the first borough outside Manhattan to receive these electric trolley cars in the 1920s, and then finally Brooklyn joined the fun in 1930. By 1960, however, motor buses completely replaced New York City public transit trolley cars and trolley buses. The city's first regular elevated railway (el) service began on February 14, 1870. The El ran along Greenwich Street and Ninth Avenue in Manhattan. Elevated train service dominated rapid transit for the next few decades. On September 24, 1883, a Brooklyn Bridge cable-powered railway opened between Park Row in Manhattan and Sands Street in Brooklyn, carrying passengers over the bridge and back.

    THE CITY COLLEGE OF NEW YORK VIRTUAL SALUTE TO GRADUATES JUNE 30, 2020 THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK VIRTUAL SALUTE 2020 | 1 PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Dear CCNY Graduates of the Class of 2020, There are moments in our history that impress an indelible mark upon us, when we are called to do extraordinary things under the press of an indescribable moment. Anyone graduating in the midst of the COVID19 pandemic will be marked by this extraordinary moment. But even among that national class graduating in 2020, you are different. At a time when the inequitable imprint of this scourge underscores the other inequities in our society, the City College—and those who work study and graduate from it—stand apart. You graduate from an institution established to redress inequality, an institution that each generation has the responsibility of scanning the social and Vince Boudreau political landscape, and setting its sights on rectifying that which sits most uneasily in President the light of that responsibility. It has been over fifty years since we have faced the kinds of challenges we face today to our democracy, to the fabric of our society, and to the health and security of our people. As an institution, we were made for this moment. As graduates of CCNY, you now shoulder the responsibility of giving voice to your vision of that just society, a vision we have worked to develop and instill in you all the days of your work with us. You have struggled, sometimes mightily and against long odds, to reach this day, and we beam with pride at your accomplishment.

  • Washington Heights Community Directory
    Washington Heights Community Resource Directory New York State Psychiatric Institute Center of Excellence for Cultural Competence May 2008 Community Profile: Washington Heights and Inwood A survey of New York City residents found that people who report having significant emotional distress are more likely to engage in unhealthy behaviors, such as getting no exercise, binge drinking, smoking, and eating a poor diet. Similarly, New Yorkers with significant emotional distress experience high rates of chronic illness, such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, asthma, and diabetes. An added difficulty is that neighborhoods in New York with the lowest incomes often have the highest rates of significant emotional distress, often adding to the burden on these already underserved communities (New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, 2003). The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has conducted a number of community health surveys to assess the health and well-being of New Yorkers. Here, we present some of the factors important to the physical and mental health of the communities of Washington Heights and Inwood, to serve as background for the services listed in this directory. Washington Heights and Inwood: The population of Inwood and Washington Heights (I/WH) at the 2000 census was 270,700. More than half of the residents of these communities (51%) were born outside the United States, compared to 36% for New York City as a whole. Figure 1 shows the countries of origin for foreign-born members of Community District 12 (which is made up of Inwood and Washington Heights), while Table 1 lists foreign-born residents by country of origin.
