Byram

Historic, diverse, and waterfront—Byram offers community charm with easy access to city amenities.

Welcome to Byram

Byram is one of Greenwich’s oldest and most storied neighborhoods, sitting along the Byram River and Long Island Sound at the town’s southwestern edge. First settled in the 1660s, Byram was originally home to sea captains and later developed into a fishing and farming community. Over time, it became a hub for quarrying, manufacturing, and trade thanks to its access to the river and nearby coastline.
 
The neighborhood has long been known for its diversity and working-class roots. As industry expanded in the 19th century, Byram welcomed a range of immigrant communities—including Irish, Italian, German, and Polish families—who shaped the area’s cultural identity and helped build its tight-knit community feel.
 
Today, Byram offers a mix of housing options, from modest inland homes to larger waterfront properties, many near the popular Byram Park. The park includes Greenwich’s only public pool, along with tennis courts, athletic fields, and kayak access to the water. The neighborhood also features its own fire station, school, and library, giving it the feel of a self-contained village.
While Byram doesn’t have a bustling downtown, it benefits from close proximity to Port Chester, NY, which sits just across the border and offers a wide range of shops, restaurants, and nightlife. Local favorites like Tarry Lodge and Kneaded Bread have helped bring renewed attention to the area.
 
Affordable by Greenwich standards and rich in history, Byram is a neighborhood on the rise—with a strong sense of community, easy access to transportation, and a waterfront lifestyle that’s hard to match.
