The Residence Halls

Approximately 700 students make their home at Marymount Manhattan in one of our three residence halls. Think of it as a built-in community, where there's a good chance your neighbor is your classmate or a friend you've made in one of your extracurricular activities. At the same time, you're living in the heart of the cultural and commercial mecca that is Manhattan, and you're in a prime location to take advantage of all that city life has to offer.

The 55th Street Residence is our first-year residence hall and newest hall, where students live in suite-style arrangements just 16 blocks from the College. Each suite consists of two bedrooms furnished with loft beds, dressers, and desks, a kitchen and a bathroom, plus individual lines for telephone, cable and computer access. The building is staffed with 24-hour security and features other amenities such as a laundry room, convenience store, lounge space and balcony.

de Hirsch Hall is located at 92nd Street and Lexington Avenue, and students in this hall reside on two floors in single and double rooms. Students on each floor share a community kitchen and bathroom, and each student has a bed, dresser, and desk. de Hirsch is staffed with 24-hour security and offers weekly maid service. Gym facilities are available at a discounted rate, as are many lectures and special programs held in the facility.

The Manhattan Park residence on nearby Roosevelt Island offers true apartment living for upper class residents. These two bedroom/two bath apartments in an exceptionally nice apartment complex are spacious and feature a full kitchen, living room, dining area, two baths, large closets, a flat screen TV, internet and cable. There is a free gym located within the building, a laundry room, a 24-hour concierge, and a sun deck. Manhattan Park is in close proximity to MMC by taking the Tram from 59th Street to Roosevelt Island, or by taking the Uptown F train from 63rd Street and Lexington Avenue to the first stop.

The Residence Life staff oversees all living facilities and strives to create a sense of community by providing educational and social programs. Each hall is staffed by full-time Residence Directors and Resident Advisors.
