caption_attribution_description: The 190th Street subway station on the IND Eighth Avenue Line, "A" service, is located on Fort Washington Avenue at Corbin Circle, the intersection with Cabrini Boulevard, in the Hudson Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. Built in 1928-32, it was designed in part by Squire J. Vickers. A brick building, it was later provided with a stone facade to match the entrance to Fort Tryon Park across the Circle. Formerly called "190th Street-Overlook Terrace", the station has a tunnel leading to Bennett Avenue in Washington Heights, as well as stairs to Fort Washington Avenue. The station was listed on the NRHP in 2005.
context_page_description: Hudson Heights is a residential neighborhood of the Washington Heights area of Upper Manhattan, New York City. Most of the residences are in apartment buildings, many of which are cooperatives, and most were constructed in the 1920s through 1940s. The Art Deco style is prominent, along with Tudor Revival. Notable complexes include Hudson View Gardens and Castle Village, which were both developed by Dr. Charles V. Paterno, and were designed by George F. Pelham and his son, George F. Pelham, Jr., respectively.
  The neighborhood is located on a plateau on top of a high bluff overlooking both the Hudson River on the west and the Broadway valley of Washington Heights on the east, and includes the highest natural point in Manhattan, located in Bennett Park. At 265 feet above sea level, it is a few dozen feet lower than the torch on the Statue of Liberty.
  At the northern end of the neighborhood, where Cabrini Boulevard meets Fort Washington Avenue at Margaret Corbin Circle, is Fort Tryon Park, conceived by John D. Rockefeller Jr., designed by the Olmsted Brothers, and given to the city by Rockefeller in 1931.
context_section_description: The neighborhood has no local hospitals.  The former St. Elizabeth's Hospital at 689 Fort Washington Avenue at West 190th Street has now been converted into cooperative apartments.  The nearest hospitals are Allen Hospital at the northernmost tip of Manhattan, and Columbia University Medical Center at West 169th Street, both part of the New York-Presbyterian system.
