The Columbia crew team's boathouses are located on the Harlem River, part of the Baker Field facility.
The ensemble consists of the old, no longer used Gould-Remmer Boathouse, and the new, three bay Class of 1929 Boathouse which began construction in 1999 and was completed in 2001.[1] The two buildings sit side-by-side.
The original boathouses, however, were located on the Hudson, even as Columbia's 19th century Midtown campus was closer to the East River.
