Very quick commute with subway downtown (ABCD lines). Walking distance to Columbia University and to Central Park.

In the heart of a vibrant and increasingly diverse neighborhood, with fascinating history: Central Harlem.

Walk up; fourth floor (top of building, in the corner, eight windows) = lots of light.

2BR, equal-sized bedrooms with 2 resp 3 windows each. Large beds. Bathroom in between.

Living room with three windows. Furnished with "bed love-seat" (great as guest bed), sofa, arm-chair, huge work desk with ergonomic work chair (Herman Miller).

Hardwood floors, bathroom inbetween the two bedrooms. Great fully equipped work kitchen with dishwasher. Laundromat in basement of building.

I have been living in this apartment for almost five years and love the neighborhood. Lots of things are going on; many new restaurants, cafés, and a Citarella has opened up recently. Walking distance to Fairway, New York's best gourmet grocery store.

NYSC gym within two blocks; subway with great express lines almost next door (see picture).

The rent is $1,500 per month ($3,000 for entire period), which excludes utilities (gas/electricity) and phone, DSL Internet. There is no cable TV. Deposit for bills required.

Dates flexible if needed.
