Riverside, located between the Merrimack River and downtown Haverhill, is a residential and riverfront Haverhill neighborhood with hillside streets and long water views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along Riverside Avenue near the Basiliere Bridge, where riverwalk stretches, small storefronts, and steady foot traffic frame the day-to-day rhythm. Triple-deckers and compact capes mix with older mill-era buildings across the water, giving the streetscape a practical, historic feel. Washington Street’s brick blocks and converted mill spaces add a cultural edge without leaving the river nearby. The Merrimack Riverwalk sets the pace for walking loops and sunset pauses. Seasonal events at nearby venues keep the calendar active while the neighborhood stays grounded and quiet after dark.
