Discover the hidden treasures of New York City's brownstone capital in the Mount Morris Park Historic District. As one of the earliest land marked districts in Harlem, this neighborhood boasts a high degree of integrity with quality, design, and workmanship showcased in the buildings within the Mount Morris Park Historic District. Step back in time and experience the remarkable blend of late 19th and early 20th-century residential and church architecture associated with the Gilded Age.
