Why Live in Riverdale

Riverdale, located about 2 miles southeast of downtown Roanoke, is a historic neighborhood undergoing significant transformation. Once home to the former American Viscose Plant, the area is being reimagined through the large‑scale Riverdale redevelopment project, one of Roanoke’s most ambitious economic initiatives. Plans include apartments, retail, dining, office space, arts facilities and recreational amenities, with phased development expected to extend over the next 20–25 years. The project aims to create a vibrant mixed‑use district that blends creativity, commerce, and community while retaining many existing local businesses. Riverdale offers convenient outdoor access via the Roanoke River Greenway, with nearby entrances providing scenic routes for biking and walking. Golden Park adds playgrounds, a basketball court and open green space. The neighborhood features a mix of housing, including early 20th‑century Cape Cods, bungalows, and Colonial Revivals, along with newer construction. It remains one of Roanoke’s more budget‑friendly areas, offering both starter homes and rental options such as the Mount Pleasant Villas. Residents rely on Bennington Place for daily essentials, while downtown Roanoke’s restaurants and entertainment are a short drive away. Major roads, including U.S. 581, ensure easy regional access, and Roanoke‑Blacksburg Regional Airport is about 8 miles from the neighborhood. Riverdale is served by Roanoke City Public Schools.
