Manhattan Part of the NYC Flashmaps Series This article has been viewed 2725 times in the last 17 months Franny Wentzel: 5th May 2009 - 00:53 GMTMissing a neighborhood in Manhattan. Marble Hill was once a part of Manhattan Island but a river realignment project severed it and a fill project attached it to the Bronx. Marble Hill still legally a part of NY county - the only part of Manhattan that isn't an island. Peter: 5th May 2009 - 00:56 GMTahh, true. i heard that happened due to a ww1-era harlem river-widening project to assist with industrial/barge traffic (despite the spuyten duyvil bridge's annoyingly low-clearance). i used to row past there every morning of the world at 5:30am on the dot while the tastycake factory's pop-tart and brownie smell made my stomach rumble for breakfast... i love that area, despite the mall that ate up all the cool, creepy abandoned industrial spots there.
