Neighbourhood
There is a small restaurant on site so you can simply walk across the lawn for lunch (Currently open from 1pm-7pm. The hours seem to change from time to time😊 . A few cute cafes and restaurants walking distance too. (You can see on google maps, for example, Sheza Coffee House and Emiliano's Market.)
The apartment is located in the Riverdale section of the Bronx, New York City just north of Manhattan. A great place to relax after a busy city day. Gorgeous areas to visit nearby and access to Manhattan via Express bus, train or car service. By car it is possible to be on the Upper West Side of Manhattan in 20 minutes. The Upper West Side inclues sites such as Central Park, The Museum of Natural History and Lincoln Center.
More information about shopping, restaurants and attractions will be shared in the welcome guide but as a starter the beautiful Wave Hill is very close by:
Wave Hill Public Garden & Cultural Center

And, the famous Bronx Zoo, Botanical Gardens and the Bronx’s Little Italy with amazing, authentic Italian food and atmosphere are within 15 minutes depending upon traffic.
Nearest airport
JFK, LGA, EWR
Getting around
5 minute walk to express bus into Manhattan. Generally can get anywhere in Manhattan in an hour. If you have a car it’s much faster. Depending on final Manhattan destination can get most places by personal car or Uber in 15-30 minutes. If bringing your car we can share tips for getting a parking garage in Manhattan and your parking at the apartment will be outdoors but in a free fenced space. The buidling and surrounding property has security.
Could also take a 30 min local bus to subway ride of about 30 minutes or do Uber to the subway which would be fast and then only 30 min subway ride to Manhattan.
We know this isn’t like staying in central Manhattan but it has the upsides of views and tranquility plus discovering lesser known local gems and the caché of telling all your friends you stayed in the Boogie Down Bronx! 😉
