Hamilton Heights

Named after founding father Alexander Hamilton, just one of the many infamous residents who once made their home here, the historical Hamilton Heights is filled with beautiful brownstones, new developments, and tree-lined streets. The northern part of Hamilton Heights includes Sugar Hill, which affluent African-Americans nicknamed back in the 1930s for the “sweet life.” Stop by the Riverbank State Park for its many sports facilities, sweeping green spaces, and gorgeous views of the water and George Washington Bridge.
