6 ­ 413 West 145th Street Area Map Location Overview

Hamilton Heights is the Northern Manhattan neighborhood who’s namesake is Alexander Hamilton, a founding father and The United States’ first Secretary of the Treasury. Hamilton Heights is bounded by 135th street to the South, 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 , 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 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
