There are enlightened ways to revitalize a tired downtown and waterfront. Yonkers can become a lively city that celebrates its vibrant history and spectacular River views. 

​

It can restore its central urban core of vintage buildings, design city squares and parks, and create an architectural design for a waterfront that enhances the city’s cultural and historic past. Yonkers can become a tourist destination in its own right! 

​

Imagine turning Yonkers into a South Street Seaport; a Baltimore; a Portland, Maine; a Portland, Oregon; or a Portsmouth, New Hampshire. 

​

Then imagine a city of giant indoor malls with big box stores and a tall wall of expensive apartment buildings along the waterfront with views only for those residents. 

​

Imagine - in which Yonkers do you want to work and live? 

And which Yonkers deserves to be called: Gateway to the Hudson Valley?
