I'm delighted to report that I've found a new home in NYC, too. After deciding that I really didn't want to leave Manhattan for the wilds of Brooklyn or New Jersey I was fortunate enough to find a sublet right up at the very tip of the island--Inwood. Thus far I've only seen photos of the apartment but it's very nice and I'll be seeing it next week before I move in sometime in October. But I thought I'd catch the subway uptown and find the actual street today just to acclimatise myself. TT and I have visited here before and walked through beautiful Inwood Park so I thought I'd start in familiar territory and have lunch at the Indian Street Cafe on the park.
I suspect this will be my local.
This is the view from the top of my street. It ends in a cul de sac
Then you can walk to the subway and shops through this little park
Or you can take the steps further down the street leading to Broadway
I was pleased to see that the shops include a liquor store with a sense of humour
and emergency supplies for all occasions.
wonderful news! so glad you are staying on the isle of Manhattan!
ReplyDeleteYou chose well! Inwood was my last New York City neighborhood - I always found it to be real, beautiful and welcoming. Yay for you! Inwood just became a better place to live.
