"Schools, Commerce, Residents, and Industry - Together On One Street"

If you like a mixed bag, you will be glad to go to W. 142nd St. It has a little bit of everything. You will find apartment buildings lined up one after another on certain blocks. You will find grocery stores and other commercial establishments at street corners, and you will also find a few industrial buildings along the way.

I can't forsake the schools. There are a couple of schools located on the street, especially where the street ends near Bradhurst Avenue and 5th Avenue.
Pros
  • Plenty of stores
Cons
  • Little too dirty in spots
