Parks & Nature
One of NYC's iconic "ribbon parks," this lovely green space stretches from 141st street (just a few blocks away) all the way down to 128th, and encompasses the enormous hill between St. Nicholas Ave and St. Nicholas Terrace that upper Harlem is so known for. Basketball courts, secret hideaways, an adorable dog run, and even some art installations make this park amazing for walks, runs, and picnics.
