The Roger Morris is a low-rise, five-story prewar co-op built in 1910 and comprising 17 units, primarily two-bedroom homes. Architecturally it retains classic early-20th-century details: tall ceilings, oversized windows, picture-frame moldings, crown and wainscot trim, and hardwood or plank floors. Units range from traditional layouts with formal dining rooms and eat-in kitchens to reconfigured, renovated two-bedroom plans featuring updated kitchens and baths. Common areas are modest and resident-focused: a lived-in superintendent, a renovated laundry room, bicycle storage, rentable basement storage, and a planted common garden/courtyard. The building is a walk-up and uses a video intercom system for entry; it is smoke-free and pet-friendly with board policies that allow various purchase structures (co-purchasing, parents buying, pied-à-terre, and sponsor sales in some offerings). Located on a quiet, tree-lined block in Washington Heights near the Morris-Jumel Mansion and High Bridge Park, the property offers quick access to multiple subway lines (A, B, C, D, and 1) and neighborhood retail, cafes, and restaurants. Overall the building emphasizes preserved prewar character, practical resident amenities, and a well-managed, community-oriented environment.
