132nd Street (Manhattan)

132nd Street (Manhattan)

132nd Street is a thoroughfare in uptown Manhattan in New York City. It runs east-west above Central Park. It is located in Harlem just south of Hamilton Heights. The main portion of 132nd Street runs eastbound from Frederick Douglass Boulevard to northern end of Park Avenue where there is a southbound exit from / entrance to the Harlem River Drive. After an interruption from St. Nicholas Park and City College, there is another small stretch of West 132nd Street between Broadway and 12th Avenue

The 132nd Street Community Garden is located on 132nd Street between Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard and Malcolm X Boulevard. In 1997 the lot received a garden makeover; the Borough President's office funded the installation of a $100,000 water distribution system that keeps the wide variety of trees green. The garden also holds a goldfish pond and several benches. The spirit of the neighborhood lives in gardens like this one, planted and tended by local residents.

The Manhattanville Bus Depot (formerly known as the 132nd Street Bus Depot) is located on West 132nd Street between Broadway and Riverside Drive in the Manhattanville neighborhood.
