The Riverdale (also known as Riverdale – West 254th Street) Metro-North Railroad station serves the residents of the Riverdale neighborhood via the Hudson Line. Trains leave for New York City every 25 to 35 minutes on weekdays. It about 12.2 miles from Grand Central Terminal and travel time to Grand Central is about 26 minutes. After Mount Saint Vincent station at West 261st Street was closed in 1979, it became the northernmost station on the Hudson Line in the Bronx.

Just south of the station are switches that allow Empire Corridor trains to diverge to Pennsylvania Station via the Spuyten Duyvil Bridge and the Empire Connection.

As of August 2006, daily commuter ridership was 543 and there were 153 parking spaces.

Next to the station's southbound platform lies the Riverdale Waterfront Promenade and Fishing Access Site. Dedicated in 2005, by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the park "is 20 feet (6.1 m) wide and 600 feet (180 m) long, providing benches and a place to fish or take a stroll between Metro-North train tracks and the Hudson shoreline."

Riverdale is a river valley neighbourhood located just east of the downtown core in the city of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Its boundaries on the east and south are the North Saskatchewan River. Immediately across the river to the south is another Edmonton river valley neighbourhood--Cloverdale. Riverdale shares the approaches to the Low Level Bridge with a third river valley neighbourhood, Rossdale. To the north, is the neighbourhood of Boyle Street. Riverdale's boundary with the downtown core runs approximately along Grierson Hill Road.
