The Carlton Arms is a residence hall with suites for undergraduates, students in the Combined-Plan, students in the School of General Studies, as well as transfer students and students without guaranteed housing. It is located on 109th St and Riverside Drive.

Amenities

Bathrooms

Each suite has two bathrooms with two sinks, two stalls, and a shower.

AC/Heating

No AC, but the heating is aggressive. Many rooms have multiple windows, some of which open to the Hudson, so a few well-placed fans can enhance the natural airflow and get your room cool.

Lounge

Each suite has a centrally-located lounge, though there’s not a communal one for the whole floor.

Kitchen

Each suite has one kitchen with an oven, microwave, fridge, stove, and ample cabinet space.

Laundry

In the basement of the building, only accessible through an elevator. Normal busy-ness.

Fire escapes

There are fire escapes that are accessible but you’re not allowed to go on them.

Bike storage

In the basement

Computers/printers

In the first-floor lobby.

Gym

Small gym on the top floor with a treadmill and some lifting equipment.

Intra-transportation

Two elevators that are decent.

Hardwood/carpet

Rooms have hardwood, the rest of the suite has carpet.

Layout

Suites have anywhere from 4 to 10 rooms. The building has 25 singles and 53 doubles. Transfer students, SEAS combined plan (3-2) students, graduate students, and even a few “regular people” (i.e. non-Columbia students) live here alongside undergrads.
