Sidewalk repair in Hamilton Heights
Hamilton Heights is where our address is, on West 139th Street. Its row houses, brownstones and apartment buildings sit on the ridge above Harlem, and the steep cross streets bring their own sidewalk problems with slope and drainage.
Sidewalks in Hamilton Heights
On the steeper cross streets, sidewalks have to handle water running downhill. Settled sections can send it toward buildings or leave it pooling in low spots, so we set the new sidewalk to slope toward the curb. Getting the slope right is part of the sidewalk repair Manhattan homeowners on hilly blocks need.
The neighborhood’s row houses, including the landmarked blocks of its historic districts, bring stoops, areaways and older concrete at the building line. Many are one-, two- or three-family homes, which matters where a City tree caused the damage.

Questions from Hamilton Heights property owners
Water pools on my sidewalk. Can that be fixed?
Usually, by replacing the settled flags and setting the new sidewalk with a slope toward the curb, so water drains off instead of collecting.
