560 West 126th Street is a six story pre war rental building in Hamilton Heights, completed in 1910 with 18 apartments and a walk up layout. Its most specific location feature is its position beside Columbia University’s 17 acre Manhattanville expansion, with the Jerome L. Greene Science Center next door and the university’s 116th Street campus roughly 10 blocks south.
The apartment mix includes renovated two, three, and four bedroom layouts, as well as a duplex that introduces a two level arrangement within the traditional walk up building. Apartments commonly have open kitchens with stainless steel appliances and dishwashers, hardwood floors, generous living areas, and in unit washers and dryers. Exposed brick, bright exposures, and substantial closet space also recur among the renovated interiors.
The building has an intercom and a live in superintendent, and pets are allowed. The 1 train stops at 125th Street, immediately nearby, while Citi Bike, Fairway, and restaurants, cafes, and bars line Broadway and West 125th Street. Manhattan School of Music, Barnard College, and Teachers College are also close to the building.
Riverside Park and Morningside Park provide nearby green space, and the surrounding area marks the transition among Hamilton Heights, Manhattanville, and Morningside Heights. The location combines a small pre war apartment building with Columbia’s expanding campus and the retail and dining along Broadway.
