Talk:New York (city)/Morningside Heights

Boundaries of this neighborhood
Shouldn't places south of 110 St. be listed under the Upper West Side entry? I will wait a while for response, but reserve the right to move such listings if no response is forthcoming. (By the way, when I was growing up on 97 St., I always considered Morningside Heights a subsection of the Upper West Side, anyway.)

 * The area between 96th and 110th is not usually considered to be a part of the UWS. Historically, it is divided into Bloomingdale (a mixed neighborhood with Riverside Drive and WE Ave. but the more ethnically diverse Broadway included) and the working class neighborhood of Manhattan Valley. My feeling is that, rather than listing all the microcosms that form Manhattan, it makes more sense to include the area north of 100th in Morningside and the area south of 100th in the UWS. These days, Morningside Heights stretches informally down to 103rd street on Broadway (though not on Amsterdam or Columbus!) anyway. No UWS resident would include, say, Indus Valley or Turquaz, in his/her neighborhood!--(WT-en) Wandering 20:49, 1 September 2007 (EDT)
