Comprised of Inwood as well as Hudson, Washington, and Hamilton Heights, Upper Manhattan is a residential locale anchored by a trio of incredible yet overlooked public parks. It is filled with apartment buildings and townhouses as well as a mix of family-owned and national chain restaurants.
The Life
The main pedestrian thoroughfares of Broadway and Amsterdam and St. Nicholas Avenues are lines with restaurants, markets, cafes, and shops. Highbridge Park overlooks the Harlem River, and Fort Tryon Park is an intimate greenspace with lovely walking paths, integrated stone architecture, and the historic Cloister Center of Medieval Art. Nearby Inwood Hill Park is the closest one can get to pre-colonial Manhattan.
