Abstract: The Dyckman farmhouse, located at 4881 Broadway in Inwood, is the oldest remaining farmhouse on Manhattan Island. The house was built in 1784 by William Dyckman and restored in 1919 when it was donated to the city of New York (Docent). To the average person, the house is an anomalous sight - an old-looking house surrounded by tall buildings and busy streets. The farmhouse thereby serves as an excellent example of Dutch colonial architecture, and as a reminder of how the city used to be. (from Introduction)
