Morris Heights (Metro-North station)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Morris Heights Metro-North station serves the residents of the Morris Heights neighborhood of the Bronx, New York via the Hudson Line. Trains leave for New York City every 25 to 35 minutes during peak hours, and every hour at other times and on weekends. It is 8.1 miles (13 km) from Grand Central Terminal and travel time to Grand Central is approximately 17 minutes. Morris Heights is the second-southernmost station (and the southernmost open to the public) before the Hudson Line joins with the Harlem Line and New Haven Line.
It is located in the narrow strip of land between the Major Deegan Expressway and the Harlem River, next to Roberto Clemente State Park.
The station has operated since the days of the New York and Putnam Railroad early in the 20th century, though not in its present form.
