Most of Riverside Drive was built along an older road. Due to the hilly terrain, Riverside Drive passes over 96th Street, 125th Street and 158th Street on viaducts; at 125th Street, an old alignment is present, also named Riverside Drive. At its north end, Riverside Drive used to merge with the northbound lanes of the Henry Hudson Parkway, which were originally part of the road. However, in 2005, a retaining wall collapsed onto the roadway and on the Northbound Henry Hudson Parkway. To this day, the right lane of the Henry Hudson Parkway remains closed and Riverside Drive is closed at 181st Street. A detour takes you to Haven Avenue to Fort Washington Avenue.
The section exiting the parkway at the Dyckman Street exit and ending at Broadway is still known as Riverside Drive.
