The 2nd bedroom is also very large and is adjacent to the second full bathroom. Then there is the 19 foot long terrace with views of the Hudson River, the Mario Cuomo Bridge, Van Cortlandt Park, and all points North. The view is verdant in spring and summer, captures the jewel tones of autumn and is picturesque in winter. When you live at Skyview, 23 acres of manicured lawns and gardens, you live in a community within a community. The amenities are resort-like, from the seasonal olympic sized pool, basketball and tennis courts, a gym, community room, playground and dog run, all available to you at no additional cost.

Quick Profile

Searching for a little bit of country that can be your home base, while still being able to take advantage of everything that NYC offers? Do you want a slower pace of living, focused on family and the great outdoors? Riverdale may be your perfect choice. Only about ten miles north of Midtown, Riverdale’s bucolic paradise feels like you have left the city entirely. You would never guess that you are still within the confines of the Bronx. 

Riverdale is primarily residential with a substantial number of single-family homes and corridors of high-rise apartments. There are many large parks, and they play a major role in the lives of the residents, as they are a primary source of entertainment. Clean, safe streets make Riverdale a great place to walk or cycle. There are trees everywhere, and the air is fresh and invigorating. It is a great place to raise a family, but more and more singles and young professionals are moving into Riverdale, in search of larger, less expensive apartments, and to enjoy the parks and the remarkable views of the Hudson River and Manhattan.  

While the grid layout of the rest of the city makes it easy to find your way from here to there, Riverdale chose to forego that structure, choosing instead to let the verdant streets twist and wind their way around natural obstacles in designs by Frederick Law Olmsted, of Central Park fame. Some streets are divided, with traffic in one direction being at an entirely different level than traffic headed the opposite way on the same street. This quirkiness adds a certain charm to this neighborhood.
