Highbridge House for backpackers and budget travelers visiting New York
Located just 25 minutes from Times Square by NYC subway. Close to midtown New York yet worlds apart. Staying in our Spanish speaking neighborhood can become an attraction of its own. We are the greenest neighborhood of the 5 boroughs that comprises New York City. Enjoy a walk at the Highbridge park and recreation center, get a close-up of the oldest bridge ever built in Manhattan ' High Bridge' . Walk a brisk 25 minutes to America's most beautiful Park ' Fort Tyron Park' for a little adventurous round of snowboarding or cross country skiing in winter or enjoy a casual dinner at the New leaf cafe and open air terrace or join our Japanese friends to watch Hideki Matsui at the Yankee baseball stadium 1.3 miles away. Driving over the George Washington Bridge (minutes away) for a 13.2 mile ride reach the Fahnestock State Park for a day of hiking. Convenient Indoor parking is available in the next street. Located just 5 blocks away is the Columbia University medical center and colleges.
We are not that that far off from the rest of New York City either !
