The Dyckman House
The Last Colonial Farmhouse in New York City
by
Sondra E. Ganelli

A typical eighteenth-century Dutch colonial Farmhouse, the
Dyckman House is the last of its kind situated in Manhattan, coincidentally
the heart of New York. Located at 4881 Upper Broadway in Inwood, I can
only describe the house as a breath of silence among the mist of noise.
Its quaint appearance and interesting history adds a touch of much needed
quiet and simplicity to an area swollen with car noises, twenty- story
buildings, and pollution. |
