2841 Broadway, Morningside Heights, Manhattan, NY 10025

Morningside Heights is the home of several higher learning institutions, including Columbia University and Barnard College. But what this Upper Manhattan enclave amasses in educational prestige it more than equals with leafy, natural beauty. The neighborhood is balanced between the loveliness of Morningside and Riverside Parks, the former of which contains something you’d never expect to find in this city — a cliff. Atop that outcropping of Manhattan schist sits the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, a structure as striking in its design as its sheer size. Though you’ll find a collection of sparkling condominiums, much of Morningside Heights falls within a historic district that preserves the area’s look from around the turn of the 20th century — when it initially became a residential haven. Those homes primarily consist of Colonial and Georgian Revival rowhouses and apartment buildings with distinctive features — like the curved facades of The Colosseum and The Paterno.
