    Morris-Jumel Mansion is Manhattan’s oldest house.  Built in 1765 by British officer Roger Morris, the house was later inhabited by George Washington during the Battle of Harlem Heights in 1776 and the Jumel family from 1810 to 1865.  The house, now a museum, is open to the public Wednesday through Sunday 10 am to 4 pm.  The museum is located between 160th and 162nd Streets just east of St. Nicholas Avenue and can be easily reached via the C train to 163rd Street, the A train to 168th Street, or the M2, M3, M101 or M18 bus to 160th Street.
