☞ WALK: West 141st in Hamilton Heights

The brownstone sides streets in Harlem often change block by block and there are definitely some standouts that we have noticed.  In our humble opinion, one of the more charming ones to be found in West Harlem is on West 141st Street between Convent and Amsterdam Avenue.  These landmark townhouses are mostly intact except for one shell down the street and homeowners have kept the block pristine.

City College is close by which ads to some foot traffic to the neighborhood which can sometimes be a little desolate on other blocks and The Grange just opened around the corner which has become the local hangout.  Express trains on 145th are definitely a plus since this neighborhood is a bit further  up north and has only just started having better businesses set up in the past year.
