__NOTOC__ The Jumel Terrace Historic District is a small New York City and national historic district located in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. It consists of 50 residential rowhouses built between 1890 and 1902, and one apartment building constructed in 1909, as the heirs of Eliza Jumel sold off the land of the former Roger Morris estate.〔 The buildings are primarily wood or brick rowhouses in the Queen Anne, Romanesque and Neo-Renaissance styles. Also located in the district, but separately landmarked, is the Morris-Jumel Mansion, dated to about 1765.〔 ''See also:'' 〕 The district was designated a New York City Landmark in 1970, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.〔 ==Description== The buildings included in the district are:〔("Jumel Terrace Historic Distric Map" ) New York Landmarks Preservation Commission website〕 *425-451 West 162nd Street, on the north side of the street *430-444 West 162nd Street, on the south side of the street; #430-438 were built in 1896 and were designed by Henri Fouchaux〔 in a style transitional between Romanesque Revival and neo-Classical〔 *10-18 Jumel Terrace, on the west side of the street; built in 1896 and designed by Henri Fouchaux〔 in the Romanesque revival style〔("Jumel Terrace Historic District Designation Report" ) New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission (August 18, 1970)〕 *1-19 Sylvan Terrace, on the north side of the street (see below) *2-20 Sylvan Terrace, on the south side of the street (see below) *425 West 160th Street, also known as 2 Jumel Terrace, an apartment building built in 1909〔 *418-430 West 160th Street, on the south side of the street; #418 was built in 1890 and was designed by Walgrove & Israels, the remainder of the row houses were built in 1891 and designed by Richard R.
