Wave Hill is a 28-acre estate in the Bronx, in the Hudson Hill section of Riverdale. Overlooking the Hudson River, with amazing views across the river to the New Jersey Palisades, Wave Hill today includes public horticultural gardens, a cultural center, and two houses. A part of the main Wave Hill House dates back to 1843. The smaller Glyndor House was built in 1927 and today houses an art gallery. The Perkins Visitor Center, originally a garage, has a gift shop and an information desk. The estate was given to the City of New York in 1960 and Wave Hill was converted into a cultural center surrounded by a garden. The center offers visual arts exhibits and occasional Sunday concerts in Armor Hall.
