Frequently asked questions
What trains stop at 116 St-Columbia University?

What is the area around 116 St-Columbia University actually like?

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 (about 800 meters) 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 might be 7 minutes 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?
116 St-Columbia University is an underground station, so street-level noise from the subway itself is minimal. The bigger noise factors are typically the commercial activity around the station entrance and bus stops on the surrounding avenues.
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.
