Upper Manhattan takes in Harlem, Morningside Heights, Hamilton Heights, Washington Heights and Inwood. It has many pre-war co-ops and townhouses and some of the borough's largest parks, including Inwood Hill Park and Fort Tryon Park.
The 1, A/C, B/D, 2/3 and 4/5/6 run north through the area, and Metro-North stops at Harlem–125th Street.
Tami's spring 2026 notes put Harlem and Morningside Heights at about $900–$1,300 per square foot and Washington Heights and Inwood at about $600–$900, the lowest entry point in Manhattan. Price figures are ranges from Tami's spring 2026 market notes on this site, not quotes for a specific home; check current listings and recent sales before you decide.
You get more space per dollar here than further south. In pre-war co-ops, review board requirements, the underlying mortgage and reserves before you make an offer.
