Isham Park

Isham Park

Isham Park is a small park (about 6.5 acres) in the Inwood section of Manhattan in New York City. Its western border, Seaman Avenue, separates it from the considerably larger Inwood Hill Park. Isham Park has its southern boundary at Isham Street. For part of its length Broadway is the eastern boundary, but from about West 214 Street Park Terrace East is the boundary. The park's northern end is at West 215 Street. The park is cut in two by Park Terrace West.

Isham Park is noted at its southern end for some exposed marble outcropings which date from the Cambrian period. This is a popular location for college geology classes to visit. There is a public garden in the northeastern corner. Much of the rest of the park has trees and brush growing in a rather wild manner.
