The Park
runs along the Hudson River, behind City Hall and other buildings on River
Street.
Directions to Riverfront Park:
From Boston:
Take MassPike/I-90 to NY. I-90 becomes the NYS-Thruway.
Drive for 17.5 miles, Take exit B1 to stay on I-90 (and to avoid I-87).
Stay on I-90 another 13.7 miles. Watch for signs
for I-787, go over large bridge across Hudson River and stay in right
lane.
Take exit and bear right for I-787 NORTH. (You're
on the west side of the river.)
Take I-787 North for 5-10 minutes for exit marked
"Green Island". (You'll pass an exit for South Troy, Route 378). At
the end of the ramp GO RIGHT.
Drive a short distance and take a right at a
traffic light to go across a drawbridge (Green Island Bridge) to Troy.
Across the bridge, take a right at your first
traffic signal. You'll pass parking garage on your left: the park is
on your immediate right but is slightly down a hill and not entirely
obvious.
Make your first right and you'll see the band
shell. Past the band shell look for the parking garage (you can pull
to the curb temporarily to unload any gear you might have).
The park is between the parking garage and the
Castaways Restaurant.
