"No fee, just a tourist attraction"
It was really fun to see this unique New York street. Getting there is a very intentional since it is very peacefully tucked away in an historic district of Washington Heights. The street looks like it's from another time or another city, or maybe both. The uniformity of the homes is quaint, and the details are cute, from the house numbers painted on the transoms and the little doors to the subunits at street level. Cars can only enter the street from one end, and at the other is a small stairway to St. Nicholas Ave.
Awesome new find on the upper upper west side. Piece of old New York!!! Sylvan Terrace was originally a carriage path leading to the front of the nearby Morris-Jumel mansion, built in 1765. The area was largely rural until 1882, when the land surrounding the mansion was broken up and sold. Developer James E. Ray commissioned 20 uniform high-stooped row houses on what became Sylvan Terrace. The new owners of these properties were largely middle class, and included a feed dealer and a grocer.
a magical place in Washington heights, a place that is preserved virgin in time, You can see that its inhabitants keep everything intact, no modifications, a place to visit and appreciate, New York has hidden and magical places that sometimes make you feel amazed. This place is very close to the train station on 163rd street of the local Blue line C. Visiting it is beautiful, its architecture will transport you back in time.
Un hermoso lugar que no te podrías imaginar que se encuentra en Washington Heights. Puedo asegurar que el 90% de las personas que viven o han vivido entre la 165 y la 160 no se han dado cuenta de esta hermosa selecta calle.

Beautiful street that takes you back in time. Very well taken care of and great photo opp. I’d definitely visit if you’re in the area and are interested in history.
The exteriors of these homes appear to have not changed at all since my last photo visit in 2009 (when my accompanying photos were taken).
Beautiful and peaceful. In the middle of a nightmare City this place makes you feel like you are in another world. So incredible.
Long rows of beautiful and persevered houses. Usually peaceful and quiet.

Preciosa calle de casas iguales. Hípertranquila, con el suelo de ladrillos, es muy bonita para visitar y fotografiar.
Really great historic carriage houses that are unique and hidden unles you know where to look
Die Straße war bereits Schauplatz in einigen Filmen! Super schön, fast wie im wilden Westen.
Very pretty historic district. Love how the houses are preserved and kept in best condition
