Property Description for 140 Claremont Ave, 6-A
Move right in to this renovated, pre-war one bedroom with dramatic Riverside sunsets. A unique floor plan with long entry foyer and ample closets creates a separation of space generally found in much larger apartments. Turn-of-the-century high ceilings add volume and windows bring in exceptional light. Living room faces West over Sakura Park to Riverside and the bedroom has open views East. Windowed kitchen loaded with storage and bathroom has original skylight. Co-op allows pets with board approval. Building offers live-in super, storage, laundry and bikeroom in the basement. One of Manhattan's quietest locations, Claremont Ave starts at Columbia on 116th street and runs past Union Theological and Manhattan school of Music. The express is three blocks walk and there are plenty of shops, restaurants and points of interest along the way. Sakura Park directly across the street has shaded seating and is a delightful spot to read the Sunday Times.

Morningside Heights | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Due to the large number of institutes of higher learning that are housed within its borders, most notably Columbia University, Morningside Heights has a very definite college-town vibe. It has been dubbed the “Academic Acropolis,” both for the large number of schools and for the fact that the neighborhood is built high atop the Manhattan schist bluffs that are the geological bedrock of NYC. From this vantage point, which is the highest point of land in all of Manhattan, you can take in stunning views of upper Manhattan and the Hudson River. Sunsets are especially breathtaking from Riverside Park.
Walk through Morningside Heights and you’ll see a diverse population, especially when the schools are in session. It has a generally quiet atmosphere, bounded by large green spaces, dotted with small cafes, specialty stores, and restaurants that offer all manner of international cuisine. There is a modest nightlife consisting of intimate bars and small musical venues, many of which are open to the wee hours of the morning, and frequented by students.
Housing is primarily pre-war buildings that have larger apartments and beautiful architecture clustered around Broadway. You can find affordable walk-ups in low-rise buildings on the side streets. Many of the residential buildings in the area actually are owned by Columbia University.
