Morningside Heights: Drivers Keep Hitting. Officials Keep Waiting.
Morningside Heights: Jan 1, 2022 - Aug 24, 2025
Another driver. Same ending.
Since 2022, Morningside Heights has seen 733 crashes, 3 deaths, and 357 injuries. Eight were serious. Bicyclists were hurt 74 times; pedestrians 51. These are the city’s own numbers (NYC Open Data).
The pain clusters. The Henry Hudson Parkway is a brutal line on the map: 46 injuries, three serious, one killed (NYC Open Data). W 125 St adds 20 more injuries. Riverside Drive takes eight, with a serious injury among them. The worst hours stack up late: injuries spike at 23:00, then noon to 16:00 (NYC Open Data).
Three deaths on their watch.
- A 66‑year‑old man died on the Henry Hudson Parkway after a sedan crash. The record lists him as killed; the Porsche kept going north (NYC Open Data, CrashID 4566438).
- A 28‑year‑old driver died on West 121st Street. Another parked SUV is all the dataset gives us (NYC Open Data, CrashID 4616027).
- A 35‑year‑old woman died on West 126th Street in a two‑SUV crash. “Apparent death,” the city wrote. Nothing more (NYC Open Data, CrashID 4668437).
Bikes and bodies take the hit.
- A 17‑year‑old bicyclist went down at West 125th and Broadway. The city logged “head” and “severe bleeding.” He was conscious. He was a kid (CrashID 4817937).
- Pedestrian injuries here come mostly from sedans and SUVs. Nineteen by sedans, eighteen by SUVs, with trucks, buses, bikes, mopeds trailing behind (NYC Open Data).
Officials know what works — do they?
- After two people were killed by a 100‑mph driver at Canal and Bowery, the city promised to “take immediate steps” and plan a redesign. “We are taking immediate steps to fortify this intersection,” said DOT Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez (Gothamist). NY1 said the same corner would see upgrades after the crash (NY1). Death moves the city. Why wait for it here?
- Council Member Shaun Abreu has pushed on other fronts. He backed worker‑safety and pay reforms for delivery apps (Streetsblog NYC) and called a Hudson River Greenway detour “shortsighted,” urging a safer route for cyclists (Streetsblog NYC).
Three corners. One fix.
- Henry Hudson Parkway. W 125 St. Riverside Drive. Drivers strike and keep moving. The city can harden these turns, add daylighting, and give pedestrians a head start. The map points to the work: late‑night injuries, failure to yield, inattention, bad turns, and red‑light runs all show up in the city’s own tags (NYC Open Data).
Stop the repeat offenders.
- Albany is moving a tool to pin down the worst drivers. The Stop Super Speeders Act (S4045/A2299) would require speed limiters for drivers who rack up points or camera tickets. Senator Cordell Cleare co‑sponsored and voted yes in committee (Open States S 4045). Assembly Member Micah Lasher co‑sponsors the Assembly bill (Open States A 2299).
Lower the speed. Everywhere.
- New York has the power to set safer speeds. A citywide 20 mph default is on the table. It saves lives. We lay out the steps here: Take Action.
The hours tick. The sirens come.
- In the last year, crashes rose 27% year‑to‑date. Injuries rose 80% year‑to‑date. Same streets. More blood (PeriodStats, NYC Open Data).
Officials said it themselves after Chinatown: “fortify this intersection.” Do it here before the flowers show up on the pole.
