The information on the following pages of my project "Northern Manhattan" comes from a variety of sources, including my own observations. In instances where the source is on-line, I provide a link to its site. Some facts I learned from an insitution's curator, some were gleaned from flyers, and yet others came from these publications on my shelves:

Chernow, Barbara A. and Vallasi, George A., Eds. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Fifth Ed. New York, NY: Columbia University Press, 1993.

Dunlap, David W. On Broadway: A Journey Uptown Over Time. New York, NY: Rizzoli, 1990.

Jackson, Kenneth T., Ed. The Encyclopedia of New York City. New Haven, CT, and London: Yale University Press; New York, NY: The New-York Historical Society, 1995.

Michelin's Tourist Guide New York City

Willensky, Elliot and White, Norval. AIA Guide to New York City, Third Ed. New York, NY: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1988.

About this site: When in 1998 my husband and I moved into the Upper Manhattan neighborhood, I knew next to nothing about the area.  In order to address this regrettable shortcoming, I began to read up on the neighborhood in ever-widening circles and became captivated by the richness of its history.  As my notes and on-line resources accumulated it occurred to me that others may also be interested, and the idea of sharing information on a web site was born.  It is also an effort to counter the fact that too many Manhattan maps show only the part of the island south of 110th Street.  I hope you will enjoy this site and find the links useful.  Your feedback is welcome. Thank you!
