Anyone looking for decent prices in Manhattan should consider heading up to Inwood. It’s located at the northernmost point of Manhattan, north of Washington Heights, and is bordered by the Hudson River to the west and Spuyten Duyvil Creek to the north and the east. There are plenty of green spaces in the area, including Inwood Hill Park, which is known as a great spot for birdwatching, the 20-acre Isham Park, and Fort Tryon Park.
Fort Tryon Park used to be part of the Tryon Hall, which was once owned by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. who donated it to the city of New York, along with a collection of medieval art that became the basis of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Cloisters, a museum focused on medieval art and architecture.
Inwood is also home to the Dyckman House, the oldest farmhouse in New York City, which is now a historic home museum. This year plans began for the Dominican Center for the Arts and Culture, which will be located in the neighborhood. The combination of river views, spacious green areas, world class museums, and competitive housing prices make Inwood one of New York City’s most exciting neighborhoods.
