Hastings-on-Hudson

Living in Hastings-on-Hudson means driving on narrow streets that meander up and down steep hills. Those streets are lined with an eclectic mix of predominantly modest (though not modestly priced) homes, including Tudors, colonials and Capes. Hastings-on-Hudson’s lively downtown, a chain-free hub of shops and restaurants, sits near the Hudson. To the west, bordering the waterfront, are remnants of the village’s industrial past: former factory sites on contaminated land undergoing remediation. The rest of the village is primarily residential, with leafy neighborhoods like Hudson Heights, in the northeast corner; Uniontown, farther south, where some antebellum homes still stand; and in the northwest, Riverview Manor, the priciest section, with expansive river views.
