The Strathmore - A Prestigious Address

Built in 1909 by Bing and Bing - one of the most important real estate developers of the early 20th century, The Strathmore is an iconic pre-war co-op designed by the renowned architects Simon Schwartz and Arthur Gross. Revered for its architectural grandeur, the building was celebrated by The New York Times as "one of the finest of its kind in the upper end of the Drive." Meticulously maintained since its inception, the building features the convenience of full-time staff, including doormen, handymen, porters, and a live-in resident manager. Building amenities include a laundry room, bicycle room, and additional storage room.

The grandeur of The Strathmore has not been missed on Hollywood as it has famously served as a filming location for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel as well as Woody Allen's Deconstructing Harry.

The vibrant and eclectic Morningside Heights truly feels like a little village of its own yet is endlessly brimming with energy and offers a delightful mix of fabulous restaurants and authentic shops, unique cultural opportunities, incredible architecture, and plenty of green space, including-in addition to Riverside Park, Sakura Park with more than 2,000 Cherry Blossom trees, Morningside Park, and Columbia University. Residents treasure the Columbia Greenmarket, Tom's Restaurant (Seinfeld), Blue Bottle Coffee, The Hungarian Pastry Shop, Massawa, and many more shops and restaurants this wonderful neighborhood has to offer.

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.
