Entrance from Riverdale Ave. to Fieldston 
If New York can develop a fashionable suburban center—as has been 
done in other large cities — Fieldston offers the only possibility. 
All the picturesque charm charteristic of Westchester County is to be 
found on this wooded ridge overlooking Van Cortlandt Park and the 
Hudson. 
Its elevation of 300 feet and its natural topography will insure this 
against any future encroachment of the city. 
Approached by Broadway or Riverdale Ave., and easily accessible to 
rapid transit lines, it can be truly said no other development offers 
such facilities. 
As a home and investment, this is worth investigating.
