The Dyckman Houses is a NYCHA housing project that has 7 buildings with 14 and 15 stories tall. It is located between 10th and Nagle Avenues and also north of Dyckman Street in Inwood, Manhattan. It is also located next to the IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line elevated subway tracks.
The eastern portion of the site was formerly occupied by the Dyckman Oval and the western portion of the site was formerly occupied by Sherman Creek. The project was approved by the Board of Estimate on May 27, 1948. The groundbreaking ceremony was held on March 1, 1949 and construction was completed in April 1951. The first tenants began moving into the complex in September 1950. It was designed by architect William F. Ballard.
In March 2023, renovations to the two playgrounds within this complex (one is located between Buildings III and V and another is located between IV and VI) were completed as part of a $438,000 project.
