Riverdale
What it’s like to live in Riverdale
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.
