    This "City of Parks and Neighborhoods" is a walker's paradise. The scores of cherry trees that bloom in late spring are reason for the annual Cherry Blossom Festival in Full Bloom. White Plains is an energetic community that offers its residents a full calendar of events.

    Just 25 miles from New York City, White Plains has 2 Metro-North stops. The downtown area has a strong corporate presence and large companies such as Starwood, IIT, Nokia andHeinekin have offices in White Plains. The marriage of urban and suburban, commerce, residential and retail, give White Plains a pulse that is unique to Westchester County. Take a look at the Houlihan Lawrence White Plains video.
