Riverside Drive is a scenic north–south avenue in the New York City borough of Manhattan. The road runs on the west side of Upper Manhattan, generally paralleling the Hudson River and Riverside Park between 72nd Street and the vicinity of the George Washington Bridge at 181st Street. North of 96th Street, Riverside Drive is a wide divided boulevard. At several locations, a serpentine service road diverges from the main road, providing access to the residential buildings. The avenue was opened in 1880, and several viaducts were completed over the subsequent decades to connect the various segments of Riverside Drive.
