Property Description for 527 West 110th Street, 41
NO BOARD APPROVAL Popularly referred to as the Gargoyle Building, The Britannia Condominium has been home to generations of Columbia University faculty, staff and students and lovers of everything UPPER West Side. This classic and enormous one bedroom features high ceilings, hardwood floors , enormous multi-pane south facing windows and an eat in kitchen. The entry foyer with its original leaded glass window anchors a long hallway ready for bookshelves and art. The flexible layout lends itself to shares with the windowed kitchen & bath in the common areas. The low rise neighborhood has it all ; with proximity to Riverside Park's play grounds, leagues, tennis courts and running tracks , the Cathedral of St John the Divine, gourmet markets and farmers market, sidewalk cafes, new and used bookstores, St Luke's Hospital, Bank Street College ! I'm happy to report The Hungarian Pastry Shop hasn't changed its menu or free coffee refills since I was a student in the 70's. Transportation options abound.

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.
