Event Registration

There is so much to see in this famous neighborhood which is sandwiched in between the Upper West Side and Harlem. And Morningside Heights is so compact that we can walk from the SE corner at 110th Street to the NW corner near W. 125th Street in 2 hours. We will start with the Revolutionary War at a monument by Morningside Park, and we will end with the Civil War at Grant’s Tomb. In between we will see the many academic institutions (Columbia, Barnard, Teachers College, Manhattan School of Music, and two theological seminaries) which give the neighborhood its nickname of NYCs "Academic Acropolis." Also on our route are parks (Morningside and Sakura), magnificent churches (St. John the Divine and Riverside), and beautiful prewar apartment buildings. At the end, there will be an opportunity to see the inside of Grant's Tomb.
