How far should I live from 116 St-Columbia University to still call it "near the subway"?

Most New Yorkers consider anything under a 10-minute walk to be "near" a station. Under 5 minutes is ideal. But the real test is the door-to-platform time — a building 3 minutes from the entrance can be several more from the platform if the station has long corridors or deep stairs. Visit at rush hour to time the actual commute.

Is it loud living near 116 St-Columbia University?

The MTA lists 116 St-Columbia University as an underground station, so the trains themselves are rarely heard at street level. Street noise near the entrances depends on the block — check any specific address for its 311 noise complaint history.

What kinds of apartments are available near 116 St-Columbia University?

The apartment stock near 116 St-Columbia University depends on which neighborhood you are in — Morningside Heights has its own building character. Browse by type (pet-friendly, rent-stabilized, doorman, studio, etc.) using the links below, or check a specific address for the full picture.

Should I choose my apartment based on the subway station or the neighborhood?

Both matter, but most longtime New Yorkers will tell you the station matters more for your daily happiness. A great neighborhood with a 15-minute walk to the subway gets old fast — especially in January or during a summer heat wave. Pick the station that serves your commute, then explore the neighborhoods within walking distance of that station.
