We are rivers, woods, mountains. Skyscrapers, sidewalks. Traffic. Solitude. A vibe. Cities, towns, villages, hamlets. Here, our photographers train their craft on what makes this place our place.

The City of Mount Vernon in lower Westchester County is a rich and diverse community. From shopping, historic sites, and home to many churches and places to eat, it welcomes neighboring communities to come and visit.
