A state judge ruled in April 1903 that construction of the Riverside Drive extension had to start as soon as possible, [56] and a groundbreaking ceremony for the extension occurred on December 12, 1903. [57] [58] The section from 135th to 145th Street was awarded to Ryan & Parker, while the section from 145th to 155th Street was awarded to John C. Rodgers; work on both sections began in May 1904. [9] The section of Riverside Drive north of 150th Street was much higher than the streets that it intersected, prompting residents of these cross-streets to complain that their vehicles could not access Riverside Drive. [59] The plans also included widening the Boulevard Lafayette within the Washington Heights neighborhood and constructing a service road to the east of the existing boulevard. Because people frequently referred to the Boulevard Lafayette by several incorrect names, residents of Washington Heights also wanted the Boulevard Lafayette to be renamed Riverside Drive. [9]

At its north end, Riverside Drive merges with the northbound lanes of the Henry Hudson Parkway; when the parkway was built, the Henry Hudson's northbound lanes used the roadway of Riverside Drive. In 2005, the retaining wall of Castle Village collapsed onto both Riverside Drive and the northbound lanes of the Henry Hudson Parkway. [86] The wall was repaired and the roadway reopened in March 2008.
