The neighborhood

Inwood

Inwood sits at Manhattan's northern tip where the Hudson and Harlem Rivers meet. Inwood Hill Park's old-growth forest is the last natural woodland on the island, and the neighborhood's Irish and Dominican roots create a unique cultural blend. It feels more like a small town than Manhattan.
