Continuing north of the "Peewee Highway" at Pinebrook
Blvd. in New Rochelle the right of way continues in between Pinebrook
Blvd. and the Hutchinson River Parkway. This is not a not very well known
area. It's also where the Hutchinson River Bridge was located.
The bridge was removed in 1988 during the Hutchinson
River Parkway rebuild project.

After the NYW&B's demise, the area under the bridge
became popular with homeless people. In fact there may have been
homeless living there as late as the 1980's, very rare for the New
Rochelle/Scarsdale border. The area is now filled with debris, trees
and landfill.
