Buenos Aires

The city is located on the western shore of the Río de la Plata, on South America's southeastern coast.

Manhattanville College Faculty
Manhattanville (also known as West Harlem or West Central Harlem) is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan bordered on the north by 135th Street; on the south by 122nd and 125th Streets; on the west by Hudson River; and on the east by Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard and the campus of City College.

It was the first station on the Hudson River Railroad running north from the city, and the hub of daily stage coach, omnibus and streetcar lines.

With the construction of road and railway viaducts over the valley in which the town sat, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
