Greenwich’s Riverside neighborhood is a picturesque, suburban enclave that boasts an abundance of waterfront property along Long Island Sound and the Mianus River. The scenic community, situated between Cos Cob and Old Greenwich, has a population of about 8,400 and encompasses just over 19 square miles. A former fishing and farming community once known as Mianus Neck, Riverside is a popular location for those seeking a healthy and active lifestyle amid a quaint, nautical atmosphere. Residents enjoy sandy beaches, scenic marinas, emerald green golf courses and access to myriad water sports. Golf and polo are popular with local sports-minded residents, and two particularly popular attractions include the 18-link Griffith E. Harris Golf Course, Greenwich’s only non-private municipal course, and the Greenwich Polo Club, where Sunday matches take place seasonally. Residents take pride in local history, and the circa 1894 Riverside Avenue Bridge and circa 1760 Samuel Farris House are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Riverside offers a convenient commute to New York City via Metro-North Railroad.
