Strivers Rows is in Central Harlem. It is not far from Washington Heights since both are in Upper Manhattan, but it is not really close. Strivers Rows are on 138th Street, while the Heights start more or less around 155th Street.

Strivers Rows homes are very beautiful, not too crazy about the surrounding area though (but you can't have everything, especially in NYC).

Wiki says that Wash Hts used to run down to 133rd.... maybe not.

It seems close enough ( 138th and 155th) but I know that a distance like that in NYC can be worlds apart

if it's a nice weekend , might be worth a trip for you 'Frica

I don't live too far from there and I am very familiar with the area.

Yeah, Dominicans have been spilling over Harlem, LOL, It s all Dominican on Broadway starting 133th and Upwards (but it s not the Heights geographically).

I used to live in the area, but nicer part on Convent Avenue (no Dominicans there :) ), beautiful brownstones (nicer than Strivers Rows in my opinion).
