context_page_description: The Hutchinson River is a freshwater stream located in the Bronx, and Southern Westchester County, New York. The river forms in Scarsdale at Brookline Road and flows 10 miles south until it empties into Eastchester Bay in the New York City borough of the Bronx.
  The river provides the basis for the jagged city line at the north-west of New Rochelle's, where it abuts Scarsdale and then Eastchester; further dowstream and south, it plays a similar role between Mount Vernon and Pelham.
  The river is named for Anne Hutchinson, who came from Rhode Island in 1642 and settled on Pelham Neck to the east of the river, across from where Co-op City is now. She is described as murdered, by a group of Native Americans, the following year.
context_section_description: Six bridges span the river's navigable section, carrying rail and automobile traffic. They are, from downstream heading upstream: Pelham Bridge (movable), Amtrak's Pelham Bay Bridge (movable), Hutchinson River Parkway (movable), New England Thruway (fixed), and Eastchester Bridge (Boston Post Road) (fixed), in The Bronx; and Fulton Ave Bridge in Pelham Manor (movable). The movable bridges still employ tenders and open daily for maritime traffic.
