Finding Roomates in New York City

I've accepted a job as analyst at an investment bank near Grand Central. I was thinking of living near Harlem 125th for convenience to the Metro North. I was wondering if there were any recommendations for finding roomates. Or if anyone here is looking for a roomate in the city
