Rose Hill, Manhattan
Rose Hill is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan, between the neighborhoods of Murray Hill to the north and Gramercy Park to the south, Kips Bay to the east, the Flatiron District to the southwest, and NoMad to the northwest. The formerly unnamed area is sometimes considered to be a part of NoMad, because the name "Rose Hill" was chiefly used for the area in the 18th and 19th centuries, and is not very commonly used to refer to the area in the 2010s. The Rose Hill neighborhood straddles Manhattan Community Boards 5 and 6.
==Rose Hill in the Bronx==
The designation "Rose Hill" is also used in the Bronx, where Rose Hill Park〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Rose Hill Park )〕 is a vestige of a far larger estate once called "Rose Hill" by its owner, Robert Watts, and Rose Hill Campus is part of the site of Fordham University. According to the New York City Department of Parks,〔(NYC Parks: Rose Hill Park ): The Watts are called "Watt". Robert added the ''-s'', according to James Duff Law (''Here and There in Two Hemispheres'' 1903:6), who traced the site of the original "Rose Hill"〕 in 1775〔The double wedding of Col. Thomas H. Barclay and John Watts, Jr. to two daughters of Peter DeLancey, at "Union Hill" in Westchester (a property of Cadwalader Golden, Delancey's father-in-law), was recorded in ''Rivington's New-York Gazetteer'' (R. Burnham Moffat, ''The Barclays of New York'' 1904::104 note 13).〕 Robert's brother John married his cousin Jane DeLancey, whose family lived on the adjacent property, which is now Bronx Park. Prior to his marriage, John Watt had lived on his Manhattan properties. He purchased the Bronx property in 1787 from the estate of Andrew Corsa. Shortly afterward, John transferred the property to his brother Robert, who named it "Rose Hill".〔The name was transferred to property at Tivoli, New York of John Watts de Peyster, whose father, Frederic De Peyster, had married Mary Justina Watts (died 1821), youngest daughter of the Hon. John Watts, in the front parlor at 3, Broadway, in 1820 (Frank Allaben, ''John Watts de Peyster'' (1908:25); see also the description in Arthur G. Adams, ''The Hudson River Guidebook'' 1996:233, at mile 96.00.〕
Archival research by Roger Wines, professor of history at Fordham, has shown that the original owner of the manor was a Dutchman named Reyer Michaelson. Benjamin Corsa married Michaelson's daughter and was deeded the house and land in 1736. John Hughes, Roman Catholic Bishop of New York, purchased Rose Hill in 1839 as the future site of Fordham's forerunner, St. John's College.〔(''Fordham Tradition'', September 1989, on-line text )).〕
