Unlike New York City's Midtown or Lower Manhattan, Upper Manhattan doesn’t attract as many tourists. But we shouldn’t underrate Upper Manhattan. Here, you will find historic scenery to include the two oldest homes in the city, and neighborhoods that celebrate the rich heritage of the African-American and Hispanic communities. In this video, we are zooming into the northernmost area of Manhattan — NYC's Upper Manhattan.
