Harrison-Purchase New York Real EstateBlending the best of town and country, Harrison is a predomimantly
residential town which quietly grants every modern amenity. Within a
carefully protected rural atmosphere of tree-lined streets, the relaxation
of luxurious estate type living harmoniously coexists with Harrison's
"Platinum Mile", where numerous large concerns such as Texaco, IBM and
Pepsico have established corporate offices. Sophisticated employment
opportunities and outstanding shopping are also available in neighboring
White Plains. Harrison shelters a population of 25,620 within twenty-two
square miles, the distance founder John Harrison could gallop that day in
1696 when he bought the land from the Siwanoy Indians. Its northern
section, known as Purchase, has a reputation as a priviledged area of fine
estate homes. Rye Brook New York Real Estate

enjoy tree-lined residential streets in a "country-like" atmosphere on the
Westchester County Border, adjacent to Greenwich, Connecticut. Employment
within Rye Brook abounds, as it is home to Kraft Foods, Altria Corporation

The Community
Bordering beautiful Long Island sound, the waterfront Town of
Mamaroneck is comprised of the Village of Larchmont, the Village of
Mamaroneck (which also lies partly in the town of Rye) and an
unincorporated area. Occupying 12.5 square miles, with a totoal population
of 52,670, these picturesque waterside communities have been attracting
residents since 1661. Centuries of building have left the Town a charming
legacy: many vintage homes in a pleasing diversity of architectural
styles, an appealing flavor of New England amid tree lined steets. The
salt-water shore of the Sound adds outstanding natural beauty and the many
diversions of waterside life to these highly desirable communities. Port Chester New York Real Estate
The Community
The Village of Port Chester, part of the Town of Rye, has long enjoyed
an exceptional location on the shore of Long Island Sound. Since 1660, the
village has flourished in diversity. Once sheltering fishermen, farmers,
shipbuilders and trades people, Port Chester's present day environs
include quiet tree-lined residential neighborhoods, a charming downtown
area, and co-ops and suburban apartments with all the pleasures of city
living. The village's two square miles shelter 24,000 residents and are
governed by a paid Mayor and Board of Trustees. It rests approximately 25
miles from New York, borders Greenwich, Connecticut and is convenient to
White Plains. Port Chester offers ease in commutation and near proximity
to abundant employment opportunities, to world-class shopping, fine
hospitals and every urban amenity. | |||
