Hudson Heights Uptown
A one-block strip of W 187th St between Fort Washington and Pinehurst Aves, with a bookshop, a bakery, and restaurants, just up the hill from Bennett Park. "Uptown" is local shorthand, not an official name.
Roughly W 187th St between Fort Washington Ave and Pinehurst Ave, with nearby Pinehurst Ave around the corner. Cabrini Blvd is the next street to the west.
The uptown strip is compact: W 187th St between Fort Washington Ave and Pinehurst Ave, close to Cabrini Blvd and the Hudson Heights apartment blocks. Addresses confirmed from the businesses’ own sites include The Fountain Bookshop (803 W 187th St, between Fort Washington Ave and Pinehurst Ave), Tampopo Kitchen, a sushi and udon restaurant (805 W 187th St), and Dutch Baby Bakery (813 W 187th St). Buunni Coffee’s original cafe is around the corner at 213 Pinehurst Ave, near W 187th St.
Getting here: the 190th St A station, with elevators, is the nearest subway stop for most of this strip, and Buunni’s own directions use the 181st St station and its elevators up to Fort Washington Ave. Wikipedia notes a set of 130 stairs connecting Fort Washington Ave and Overlook Terrace at W 187th St, one of the neighborhood’s step streets.
Bennett Park, with the highest natural point in Manhattan, is a few blocks south, and Fort Tryon Park and The Cloisters are a short walk north.
