The Roger Morris Co‑op is a five‑story prewar cooperative completed in 1910, composed primarily of one‑ and two‑bedroom residences spread across two walk‑up buildings. Architecturally it retains period details—high ceilings, wide window and door moldings, picture rails, and hardwood floors—while many units have been sympathetically renovated to include modern kitchens, marble or tiled baths, and in‑unit washer/dryer hookups in select apartments. Common interior spaces include a formal entrance foyer and a renovated laundry room; storage cages and bicycle storage are available in the basement for a fee. Exterior amenities center on planted communal spaces: a planted courtyard and a garden with limited private outdoor patios under 60 sq ft. Building operations are stable and service‑oriented with a live‑in superintendent, updated video intercom/ButterflyMX system, package handling, and building maintenance overseen by a well‑managed co‑op board. Policies favor flexibility: co‑purchasing, parental purchases and pied‑à‑terre ownership are permitted, subletting after two years (board approval) and pet ownership are allowed. The property sits on a quiet, tree‑lined block in Washington Heights, moments from Highbridge Park, the Morris‑Jumel Mansion, and multiple subway lines (1, C), offering a neighborhood mix of parks, cultural institutions and convenient access to Columbia University and local hospitals.
