The Westchester Fine Arts Festival will take place in Tarrytown, New York in the County of Westchester. The Festival is located on the eastern bank of the Hudson River at the newly renovated Pierson Park, offering beautiful river views about 25 miles north of midtown Manhattan in New York City.
Tarrytown has access to highways I-87 and I-287, and is the site of the eastern end of the New York State Thruway's Tappan Zee Bridge. I-87 continues south to New York City, while I-287 heads east across Westchester to link up with the Saw Mill River Parkway, the Taconic State Parkway, the Sprain Brook Parkway, the Meritt Parkway/Hutchinson River Parkway and I-95.
Tarrytown railway station, which is at Pierson Park, is served by Metro North Commuter Rail service. Metro North trains go to New York City's Grand Central Terminal, and also go as far north as Poughkeepsie. Tarrytown is a major stop on the Hudson Line due to a large number of commuters crossing the Tappan Zee Bridge from Rockland County to catch express service to Manhattan.
The Hudson River waterfront in Westchester is in the midst of a renaissance, converting from primarily industrial uses to mixed residential, commercial, retail, and recreational uses. This transformation is most notable in Tarrytown, where redevelopment projects are in various stages of design and construction. Adjoining Pierson Park is Hudson Harbor, elegant townhouses and condominiums, with a yacht club and marina. In 2004, Westchester County embarked on a project to create a 50-mile long Hudson RiverWalk which will provide public access between New York City and Putnam County along or close to the river, The Westchester Fine Arts Festival will take place on the beautiful RiverWalk. RiverWalk will weave through the Hudson River communities and provide access and linkages to recreational, cultural, and historic resources as well as community business centers.
Westchester County ranks number two (number one being Manhattan) for wealthiest counties in New York State and twelfth wealthiest county nationally.
