True to its name, Riverside runs along the eastern shore of the Mianus River. This is an almost entirely residential neighborhood, with a train stop conveniently located in the center. Commuters will often stop for a coffee at Ada’s, next to the station, which sold penny candy for 58 years, until the eponymous Ada Cantavero died in 2008. The business, still owned by her family, is now a popular café. Houses south of I-95, closer to the train station and Long Island Sound, will generally command higher prices, while those north of the highway are smaller and touch more affordable. On either side though, properties are pretty, many on spacious wooded lots. Houses can range from straightforward 1920s cottages to elaborate new construction estates. Many residents here belong to the Riverside Yacht Club, the second oldest sailing club in Connecticut, which has a clubhouse with dining.
