MULTI_FAMILY - Yonkers, NY
Welcome to 83 Alta Avenue, Yonkers - where history climbs the hillside. Before it was a home, it was a destination. Built in 1898 as the "Elevator House," this cedar-shingle and stone landmark once served as the upper station for the Park Hill Incline - a funicular railway that carried New Yorkers from the city streets to the serenity of Yonkers' first planned community. Today, it remains one of only two surviving structures from that visionary transit system - a rare architectural relic thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. Now a legal two-family residence, the property features two expansive duplex apartments, offering a total of eight or more bedrooms, each perched above the Hudson with sweeping panoramic views of the river and the Palisades. Inside, you'll find echoes of its past - generous proportions, timeless materials, and a layout that invites creativity and connection. Thi...
