About St Marys Center inc

St. Mary's Center, located at 516 West 126th Street in Manhattan's Morningside Heights neighborhood, is a non-profit skilled nursing facility guided by a mission of genuine service to the community. As a non-profit corporation, St. Mary's Center reinvests its resources into care quality, staff development, and the well-being of its residents — ensuring that the needs of the people served always remain at the center of every decision.

The Cathedral of St. John the Divine — the largest Gothic cathedral in the world — stands majestically nearby on Amsterdam Avenue, and Riverside Church, renowned for its social justice mission and stunning architecture, is just steps away. Residents' families can enjoy Riverside Park, a magnificent green corridor along the Hudson River offering walking paths, gardens, picnic areas, and sweeping views of the river and the Palisades. Morningside Park, nestled between Harlem and Morningside Heights, offers additional green space and a serene waterfall landscape. Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue are lined with welcoming cafes, restaurants, and neighborhood shops. For families focused on access to exceptional medical care, the location of St. Mary's Center is outstanding. Columbia University Irving Medical Center — one of the nation's foremost academic medical institutions, affiliated with NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital — is within walking distance, providing access to specialists across virtually every medical discipline. NYC Health + Hospitals/Harlem is also easily accessible for additional inpatient and specialist care needs. The facility is well-connected by public transit, with the 1 train at 125th Street on Broadway and the A, B, C, and D trains at 125th Street on St. Nicholas Avenue providing rapid connections to the rest of Manhattan and beyond.
