Straw-Smyth is a large urban neighborhood with a quaint charm bordering Downtown Manchester. Boasting tree-lined streets, elegant historic residences, modern farmhouse-style homes, and brick apartment buildings, Straw-Smyth has a variety of affordable and upscale rental options available. This wooded locale has some of the city’s largest parks. For walking trails, tennis courts, and sports field, head to Derryfield Park, a 76-acre green space beside the famed Weston Observatory. During the winter, locals flock to the McIntyre Ski Area to enjoy the slopes or take skiing lessons. Straw-Smyth is also home to the renowned Currier Museum of Art with its exhibits of modern American and European art. Head across the street and you can take an art class at the Currier Art Center.
