There used to be one at least around 113, 114 and Broadway but I think it's gone, in which case you're talking around Morningside Church or 125th street. Should be cheaper than normal. Street parking is also easier to find up there, especially on Riverside Drive, if necessary up around Grant's tomb. [ Reply | More

North of 116 it's actually two blocks because of Claremont Ave., but the distance to Broadway is the same either way. [ Reply | More

You can try to streetpark. Or, use a parking garage in Harlem, much cheaper and you can walk to Columbia. [ Reply | More

Can't say but around 125 and Broadway they're not hard to find. It's then a 9 block walk to the main campus entrance. About the same or closer from Riverside depending on where you find street parking. [ Reply | More

There is a garage below the coop on 116 and Lenox. There is 2/3 train stop right there, so you can take it downtown to 96th street and take 1/9 back up to 116 & Broadway and it'll be Columbia. Only 2 stops. [ Reply | More

There is one under the parking lot for morningside towers(?) La Salle just east of Broadway. It is the cheapest I know of in the area. Street parking is available as alt side changes if your meeting is not too early. [ Reply | More
