North Riverdale Bronx, NY

A charming residential neighborhood along the Hudson River

Charming Riverfront Community

North Riverdale is a quiet neighborhood in the Bronx that sits atop the rocky cliffs of the Hudson River. The neighborhood features tree-lined avenues and Victorian country estates that sit at the end of long, winding drives. Renters enjoy the variety of single-family homes and apartments for rent in many large brick high-rises. Although North Riverdale feels separate from New York proper, the commute to Manhattan is quite reasonable. Shops and restaurants line Riverdale Avenue and Mosholu Avenue, including several local favorites like Beccofino for its cozy atmosphere and traditional Italian dishes. East of the neighborhood, you’ll find Van Cortlandt Park, complete with walking trails, a golf course, and horse stables.

My area of the Bronx is rather quiet and safe. My family and friends are safe here, so I can't complain.
