This could be your back yard......

One of the many issues confronting first time buyers and those who want to “downsize” is that many crave having an outdoor space. Cooperative life isn’t always conducive to having outdoor space, but the coops on Garth Rd. are an exception. The park that runs behind the Bronx River Parkway side of Garth Rd. creates a wonderful “back yard” for the residents. For those who crave outdoor space and easy to footpaths. The area, called the Garth Woods Conservatory offers a quiet oasis from the usual street and village traffic and appears to be popular with many of the residents. I took advantage of some extra time I had and took a short walk along the Conservatory with my dog Jade. We ran into several canine friends along the way as well as several people who were happy to meet my dog…I wasn’t nearly so interesting.

As can be seen from the photos - many who live along the Garth Woods Conservatory have a birds eye view of the woods - with gardens or terraces having a view of the woods.
