Apartments for Rent near Concourse, Bronx, NY

Leafy sophistication characterizes Riverdale, where pre-war apartment buildings and historic mansions create a distinctly non-urban atmosphere despite Bronx location. Residents enjoy the extensive Wave Hill public gardens and the neighborhood's significant green spaces unusual for New York City. Though Manhattan commutes require planning via express bus or subway, the trade-off comes in more square footage, architectural character, and greenery than possible in most city neighborhoods. Many buildings feature Art Deco details and unexpectedly spacious floor plans that have attracted notable residents throughout the neighborhood's distinguished history.

Waterfront serenity defines this peninsula offering sunset views from Bayswater Park's fishing pier. Renters face 45-minute subway commutes but enjoy weekend escapes via the NYC Ferry's Soundview route.

Historic charm meets urban greenspace here, where the restored 1848 High Bridge pedestrian walkway connects to waterfront trails. Renters love summer salsa nights at Bridge Park but note persistent traffic bottlenecks on the Cross Bronx Expressway during rush hours. Pre-war walk-ups dominate, with only 18% offering in-unit laundry.
