The northern tip of Manhattan—today’s Inwood—was one of the last areas with strong Lenape presence.
- A Lenape settlement called Shorakkapoch was located in this area
- The famous symbolic “purchase” is often associated with the whole island, but actual Dutch control expanded gradually, not all at once
- Even after 1626, Lenape people continued living in northern Manhattan for some time
