Living in Northwood

Historic neighbourhoods and an arts-and-dining village

Northwood brings together several historic neighbourhoods, including the Old Northwood Historic District, with 1920s Mediterranean Revival and Mission-style homes on tree-lined streets near the water.

Northwood Village, centred on 25th Street, adds independent restaurants, galleries and shops. The new towers of North Flagler Drive are close by, which makes the area interesting to buyers who want character near new construction.
