Lost Inwood: Exploring the Relics and Ruins Atop Inwood Hill

LOST INWOOD

Exploring the Relics and Ruins Atop Inwood Hill

Tuesday December 2nd at 7:30PM at Inwood Farm-

Greetings! In the mid to late 1800s, well-heeled Victorian captains of industry built lavish country homes atop Inwood Hill. For a few short decades Inwood Hill was like the Hamptons, a weekend getaway for the wealthy, filled with stately mansions, formal gardens, and reflecting pools. Today, the houses are all gone. Or are they?

On Tuesday December 2nd 7:30PM, LOST INWOOD will show you what’s left of the old mansions atop the hill. We’ll take to the field (virtually) to see the wells, cisterns, gardens, foundations, reflecting pools, debris fields and architectural remains that blanket the top of Inwood Hill Park. And we’ll put it all in context. It will blow your mind!

Please join us at Inwood Farm for this free presentation. Reservations are highly recommended. Hope to see you there.
