About the Event

Greetings!

When Covid arrived, we couldn’t have predicted it would be nearly two years before monthly talks would resume. But during the haitus, our quest to unearth new stories about the neighborhood continued unabated. Technology evolved too, giving us new tools to discover and present these stories.And discover we did. 

On Tuesday October 4th we’ll present some of the fruits of that labor: images, artifacts, and other finds from 2020-2021. From the Lenape, to the Revolution, to the 20th century, from recent(!) archaeological digs to high-tech LIDAR aerial surveys of Inwood Hill.We’ll also take a closeup look at some of the best high-resolution photos of the neighborhood, zooming and panning in real time. A number of these images were discovered during the pandemic. And there’s new hope for lower-resolution images too. With today’s photo apps incorporating “artificial intelligence,” many images that previously weren’t good enough for the big screen can now be brought up to snuff - a useful tool for both researcher and viewer. They look great!

Please join us for LOST INWOOD Tuesday October 4th at 7:30pm at THE INWOOD FARM. It’s free to the public, but reservations are highly recommended. We can’t wait to show you what we’ve been working on.Don Rice
