A blend of natural beauty and urban convenience
Northwest Yonkers offers a unique combination of scenic landscapes and urban amenities. The neighborhood is characterized by its hilly terrain and stunning views of the Hudson River, providing a picturesque setting for residents. The area is experiencing ongoing development, bridging the gap between the urban feel of Yonkers and the more suburban atmosphere of Westchester County's river towns.
Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to several parks and recreational areas. The Croton Aqueduct trail, located directly behind the building, offers excellent opportunities for walking, jogging, or biking. Nearby Riverview Park provides additional green space for relaxation and outdoor activities. For those seeking a more extensive outdoor experience, Untermyer Park and Gardens, just a 15-minute walk away, offers 40+ acres of landscaped beauty centered around a walled Persian Garden with Hudson River views.
The neighborhood caters to various shopping needs. Foodtown Express of Yonkers, a 30-minute walk or short drive from Riverwatch, provides convenient grocery shopping. For a wider selection, residents can drive to Stew Leonard's, about 105 minutes away, or Whole Foods Market, approximately 120 minutes by car. The Ridge Hill shopping center, about 115 minutes away by car, offers an elevated, open-air mall experience with international brands, restaurants, and entertainment options.
Dining options in the area range from casual to upscale. The Yonkers Diner, a short drive away, is perfect for a quick, affordable meal. For those looking to explore the culinary scene, the nearby village of Hastings-on-Hudson offers a variety of dining experiences, reflecting the area's growing appeal to city expatriates seeking a blend of urban sophistication and suburban tranquility.
Effortless commuting with multiple transit options
Riverwatch on Hudson's location offers residents excellent transportation options, making commuting and travel convenient. The Greystone Metro-North station, just a five-minute walk from the building, provides quick and easy access to Manhattan via the Hudson Line. This proximity to public transit is a significant advantage for commuters working in New York City or those who frequently visit for leisure.
For local travel, several bus stops are within walking distance. The Warburton Ave & Odell Ave stop, less than five minutes away, serves the 1 - College-Tarrytown-White Plains line. A 10-minute walk brings residents to the N Broadway & Odell Ave stop, where they can catch the 6 - Yonkers-WP-Pleasantville and 9 - N Yonkers-Yonkers RR Station lines. These bus routes provide convenient access to various parts of Yonkers and neighboring communities.
While the area is primarily car-dependent for some activities, the combination of nearby public transit options makes it possible for residents to manage without a vehicle for many of their daily needs. For those who do drive, the building's indoor garage parking is a valuable amenity, and major roads provide access to the wider region.
Air travel is also relatively convenient, with three major airports within reach. Westchester County Airport and LaGuardia Airport are both about a 30-minute drive, while John F. Kennedy International Airport is approximately 40 minutes away by car. This proximity to multiple airports offers flexibility for both domestic and international travel.
The neighborhood's moderate transit score reflects the good public transportation options available, particularly the Metro-North service. While the area's walk score suggests that many errands may require a car, the nearby train station and bus stops provide viable alternatives for commuting and some local travel. The somewhat bikeable rating indicates that while cycling is possible, it may not be the most practical option for all trips in this hilly area.
