Marble Hill Ave, Manhattan

Marble Hill Avenue like many streets in the neighborhood is bleak and dirty. There is a good deal of garbage, a good deal of traffic and noise and less than splendid surroundings. It is convenient to the subway with a subway station located very close on W. 225th street but other than that there is not much going on. The Marble Hill Playground offers a nice retreat, however there are much better parks in the area and it does not rate high on my own list of places to settle.

This street is mainly residential. It’s not all that interesting and the housing is pretty rough and not much to look at. It’s pretty convenient though for shopping, but it’s kind of loud and dirty. Not my favorite street in this neighborhood.
