Yonkers Walk NYS – Exploring Park Hill Neighborhood, April 2023

Welcome to TEchi World Walk! Park Hill is one of several Yonkers neighborhoods on my favorite places to explore. On this day, I was going to do a comprehensive walking tour of the Park Hill neighborhood, but things did not work out as planned. My camera equipment malfunctioned, and I did not bring a backup camera, so I had to stop filming. However, the walking tour was brief but exciting, as usual. I hope you enjoy this attractive Park Hill neighborhood in Yonkers. Please subscribe to the channel, give the video a thumbs up, and comment. Thanks. Have a fantastic day!

Park Hill Neighborhood
The neighborhood was developed in 1888 by the American Real Estate Company of Manhattan as one of the first planned communities in the New York metropolitan area. The neighborhood's centerpiece for a short time was the Hendric Hudson Hotel, designed by Bruce Price, the architect of the Château Frontenac in Quebec City.[1]
Park Hill contains many vintage single-family homes, many overlooking the Hudson River. The neighborhood's housing stock consists primarily of large Victorian, Tudor Revival, Arts & Crafts, and Georgian Colonial-style houses.
Notable residents in the past include the actor Richard Bennett and his daughters, Joan and Constance, and Dennis O'Brien, the United Artists counsel.
Park Hill was once the home of a funicular railroad, the Park Hill Incline, which ran from the Getty Square Branch of the New York and Putnam Railroad to Alta Avenue between 1894 and 1937. The two stations that served Incline are now private residences.
