OUR NEIGHBORHOOD
515 Edgecombe Avenue ("combe" is derived from an Anglo-Saxon word meaning "hill") is located in a neighborhood bathed in history. Just 2 blocks away is the historic Morris-Jumel Mansion, where George Washington made his headquarters in the fall of 1776 during the battle of Harlem Heights. This avenue was also the home address of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Paul Robeson, W.E.B. Du Bois, and Thurgood Marshall.
North of Highbridge park is a woodsy area within which lies a landmark schist rock that pokes through the dirt called Coogan's Bluff. This site formerly overlooked the Polo Grounds, the stadium where the New York Giants played for over 5 decades. It is named after James Coogan, Manhattan Borough President, who sold the land to New York Giants owner John T. Brush, who moved the Giants to the second Polo Grounds in 1891.
OUR BUILDING
515 Edgecombe Avenue was built in 1923. It was converted to a cooperative in 1987. The building is a 5-story walk-up with 21 units. It is currently 80 per cent owner occupied.
