Listing by Natasha Conklin• HomeSmart Premier Living Rlty
South Side, located between Downtown New Rochelle and Pelham Manor, is a residential and waterfront New Rochelle neighborhood with harbor views and leafy side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Five Islands Park entrance on LeFevres Lane, where marina slips, ballfields, and shoreline paths set a weekend rhythm. Architectural cues lean toward early-20th-century colonials and compact multifamily buildings, with pockets of mid-century apartments nearer the water. Hudson Park & Beach reads as the local front porch, with benches facing Long Island Sound. The New Rochelle Rowing Club and the New Rochelle Public Library’s main branch add civic and cultural gravity. Streets angle toward the water, giving daily routines a coastal backdrop.
