Tour Columbia University’s neighborhood. Sandwiched between Riverside Park, Morningside Park and the northern tip of Central Park. The neighborhood has a small college town feel mixed with classic NYC sensibilities. Ample green space, shady streets, and laid-back, homey feel. What sets Morningside Heights apart, however, is the number of colleges and universities in and near the area. Also in the neighborhood are two historic churches with distinct architecture a tomb to General Grant, Seinfeld’s coffeeshop, home to the Manhattan Project and the site to an American Revolution Battle. Aside from the history, academia and architecture Columbia’s neighborhood offers a variety of food choices as well as low to no cost art and culture.
