515 Edgecombe Avenue was built in 1923 and converted to a cooperative in 1987. The building is a 5‑floor walk-up with 23 units and is more than 95% owner occupied. Building amenities include bike storage for a fee and rented storage lockers.
Situated at the corner of West 158 Street and Edgecombe Avenue in the historic Sugar Hill neighborhood of Harlem, this well-run and maintained cooperative is located across from Highbridge Park where there are walking and biking paths, playgrounds, and basketball and handball courts.
The cooperative building is a 4‑minute walk to the C train at W 155 and an 8‑minute walk to the 1 train at Broadway. The south-bound M2 bus stops in front of the building and runs between the East Village 8 St via 5 Ave and to Washington Heights Broadway-168 St.
The building is a mile from Yankee Stadium and has quick access to the George Washington Bridge. There is lots of street parking in the neighborhood.
Two blocks north is the historic Morris-Jumel Mansion and two blocks south is the new Sugar Hill Children’s Museum of Art & Storytelling. A short 15 minute walk north takes you to the Highbridge Recreation Center with a large outdoor swimming (featured in the movie In the Heights), the High Bridge (the oldest bridge in New York City) and the soaring 200ft High Bridge Water Tower.
