Skyville (Schuylerville, Bronx)

Schuylerville is a middle-class neighborhood in the East Bronx. The Wikipedia entry states that Schuylerville has been nicknamed “Skyville,” but this nickname appears only infrequently in print. “Skyville (Schuylerville)” was cited in 2013 on a real estate website.

There are strong Italian components (as well as a strong Hispanic presence) in Schuylerville, nicknamed Skyvile, in the East Bronx and close to the Pelham Bay and Country Club neighborhoods.
