Washington Heights is located in the northern reaches of Manhattan with Dyckman Street bordering the area from nearby Inwood on the north and 155th Street on the south bordering Hamilton Heights and Harlem. On the east lies the East River while the Hudson River bounds the west side.

Historical Washington Heights was named after Fort Washington which was constructed at the highest point on the island. In the late 18th century up to the 19th century, this place was home to well-off New Yorkers. The Morris-Jumel Mansion, located between West 160th and West 162nd Street in the Jumel Terrace Historic District still stands today after 241 years.

For some time off after a day’s full work, the neighborhood’s five parks provide recreational facilities and offer stunning views and sceneries.

Getting to this bustling neighborhood is not a problem. Washington Heights is serviced by subway lines A and C on Eight Avenue with stops from 155th Street to 190th Street. Subway train 1 along the Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line stops at 157th, 168th, 181st and 191st Streets.
