Property Description for 435 Convent Ave, 24
Welcome to The Garrison Apartments in Historic Hamilton Heights. A coop since 1929, this stately, beautifully maintained Sugar Hill building was home to Harlem Renaissance luminaries Countee Cullen and Zora Neale Hurston, among others. On entering the gracious lobby, you can almost feel its history.
Once in the apartment, with its high ceilings, comfortable layout, beamed, wood paneled living room and the ability to restore a half bath, you immediately see that this 2-3 bedroom apartment has all the ingredients to create a one-of-a-kind home with the character that only a pre-war building can offer. The virtual photos give a good idea of some of the possibilities.
Building features include an elevator, security system, storage room, bike storage, laundry room, a lovely garden and a live in superintendent. It is conveniently located near many of the city's subway lines.
Its just blocks from City College, the 28-acre Riverbank State Park and the 11 acre, newly renovated Jackie Robinson Park with indoor and outdoor gym facilities, baseball diamonds, basketball and volleyball courts and a bandshell that hosts local concerts.
Public transportation is ideal. Its a short 15 minute ride to midtown from the 145th Street A/B/C/D express subway station, which is one block away.
Shown by appointment only.

Quick Profile
Primarily a residential neighborhood, Hamilton Heights has a mix of brownstones, walk-ups and older apartment buildings, together with more luxurious apartment and condo buildings situated along Riverside Drive. Known for being a working class neighborhood in the past, now there are many artists, teachers and actors making their homes in Hamilton Heights.
Hamilton Heights has a diverse population that prides itself on being a tight-knit community, one where neighbors know and respect one another, work together on issues that confront the community, support each other in difficult times, and spend time together socializing at block and seasonal parties.
Although there are many types of public transportation available, the area subway stops may require a bit of a walk, so you will need to plan for this time in your commute.
Hamilton Heights has a definite family-oriented vibe, and there are many playgrounds and activities for children. Additionally, you can find child daycare at reasonable prices. Riverbank State Park has many activities and recreational opportunities geared toward children.
Although there are plentiful places to shop for groceries, everything from the bigger national chains to the neighborhood bodegas and delis, they are starting to show the impact of gentrification in the higher prices they are charging, especially for organic products.
