Quick commute to downtown Yonkers in Glenwood
Between the Alexander Smith Carpet Mills Historic District and North Broadway, the small community of Glenwood lies a mile from the Yonkers downtown waterfront and 20 miles from New York City. Many residents commute into the Big Apple for work, but a good portion also work by the waterfront at Lionsgate Studios, referred to by locals as "Hollywood on the Hudson," says Yara Annechiarico, a broker and owner of At Home With Yara Realty, who has been working in the industry for 24 years. “You have the waterfront and downtown Yonkers,” says Annechiarico. “And all these amazing restaurants. A lot of activities down there. You have nightlife and outdoor activities.” While residents settling in Glenwood experience the convenience of nearby amenities and easy transportation into Manhattan, they also benefit from the more suburban atmosphere of Yonkers. “What’s nice about this location,” says Annechiarico. “Is if you’re on North Broadway you can see the Manhattan skyline.”
