Todt Hill, Mountain peak in Staten Island, United States

Todt Hill is a mountain peak on Staten Island that rises approximately 410 feet (125 meters) above sea level. It represents the highest natural elevation found along the Atlantic coastal plain extending from Florida to Cape Cod.

The name comes from Dutch settlers during colonial times, possibly referring to a local resident or the Moravian Cemetery at its southwestern base. The area evolved over centuries from rural land into an affluent residential neighborhood.

The neighborhood is known for its affluent homes and served as a filming location for scenes from a famous 1970s movie classic. The houses on the hill reflect the wealth and exclusivity that have defined this area for decades.

The area is accessible via multiple bus lines running along Richmond Road, including local routes and express services toward Manhattan. The neighborhood has good street access, with roads leading to the summit located at the intersection of two main streets.

The summit at the intersection of two streets marks not only the highest point on Staten Island but also the highest natural point across all five boroughs of New York City. This makes it a remarkable geographic distinction for the entire region.
