Longwood is an area in the South Bronx that is named for the 19th century Longwood estate. The neighborhood began to quickly urbanize at the turn of the century, attracting immigrants from the tenements of Manhattan. Some of the sites that we will encounter on this walk include a historic district of turn of the century homes, public art installation depicting local residents, century old former synagogues, the oldest Latin music store in New York City, and a Carnegie library.
