Neighborhood Profiles

Inwood

Inwood is Manhattan's northernmost neighborhood, offering a lush and hilly landscape that feels worlds away from the city's concrete canyons. Home to Inwood Hill Park, the last remaining natural forest in Manhattan, the area is a haven for nature lovers. The real estate market is known for providing some of the best value in the borough, featuring spacious Art Deco cooperatives and charming pre-war buildings with views of the Hudson and Harlem Rivers.

Kensington

Kensington is a residential Brooklyn neighborhood bordered by Prospect Park to the north and the landmarked Green-Wood Cemetery to the west, with Ocean Parkway running through its center as one of the borough's signature tree-lined boulevards. The housing stock includes brick rowhouses, prewar co-op apartment buildings along Ocean Parkway and Coney Island Avenue, and detached Victorian homes on the side streets, served by the F and G trains at Fort Hamilton Parkway and Church Avenue. The B and Q express trains are accessible within a short walk, providing a 30-to-35-minute commute to Midtown Manhattan.
