About This Tour:
Riverside Drive strove to prove that lightning could strike twice in providing a Fifth Avenue like throughfare to the Upper West Side. Planned during the Gilded Age, with mansions and beautiful parks that matured during The City Beautiful with statues, monuments and gorgeous pre-war apartments, Riverside Drive has a lot of secrets that most New Yorkers even Upper West Siders are not aware of.
