Letter to the Community in Support of Natasha Nordahl for Bronxville Village Justice

March 13, 2024: The members of the Bronxville Village Democratic Committee are asking Bronxville voters to re-elect Bronxville Village Justice Natasha Nordahl in the Village election to be held on Tuesday. March 19.  Ms. Nordahl’s service to the community as a Village Justice has been outstanding. Her dedication to the position, her knowledge, and her respect for everyone who comes before the court are exemplary.

Ms. Nordahl was first elected in September 2020. As a Village Justice, Ms. Nordahl hears landlord/tenant, small claims, and criminal matters and often performs wedding ceremonies. She also conducted the first jury trial to be held in Bronxville in over thirty years.

Ms. Nordahl was born in Brooklyn, New York, and graduated from Duke University and Brooklyn Law School. She worked as a litigator in New York City for over 20 years, specializing in litigation in State and local courts in many different disciplines. She has volunteered in various capacities in the legal world.

Ms. Nordahl and her family have lived in the Village since 2002. She has been a member of the Village Planning Board and served on the Board of the Friends of the Bronxville Public Library. Currently, in her free time, Ms. Nordahl volunteers with food banks and is an active volunteer in the Reformed Church Clothing Closet.

You are invited to meet Ms. Nordahl and the other Village candidates on the Thursday before the election, March 14, at the Bronxville Library from 6:30 to 8 PM. Bronxville is fortunate to have Ms. Nordahl serving as a Village Justice.  Please remember to vote for her on Tuesday, March 19, in the Village election.

Bronxville Overview

Bronxville is a quaint village (one square mile) located just 16 miles north of midtown Manhattan (roughly 30 minutes on the train) and has a population of approximately 6,500. It is known as a premier community with an excellent public school (K-12) and easy access to Manhattan. Bronxville offers many amenities including an attractive business district, a hospital (Lawrence Hospital), public paddle and tennis courts, fine dining at local restaurants, two private country clubs and a community library.

While the earliest settlers of Bronxville date back to the first half of the 18th century, the history of the modern suburb of Bronxville began in 1890 when William Van Duzer Lawrence purchased a farm and commissioned the architect, William A. Bates, to design a planned community of houses for well-known artists and professionals that became a thriving art colony. This community, now called Lawrence Park, is listed on the National register of Historic Places and many of the homes still have artists’ studios. A neighborhood association within Lawrence Park called “The Hilltop Association” keeps this heritage alive with art shows and other events for neighbors.

Bronxville offers many charming neighborhoods as well as a variety of living options for residents including single family homes, town houses, cooperatives and condominiums. One of the chief benefits of living in “the village” is that your children can attend the Bronxville School.

The Bronxville postal zone (10708, known as “Bronxville PO”) includes the village of Bronxville as well as the Chester Heights section of Eastchester, parts of Tuckahoe and the Lawrence Park West, Cedar Knolls, Armour Villa and Longvale sections of Yonkers. Many of these areas have their own distinct character. For instance, the Armour Villa section has many historic homes and even has its own newsletter called “The Villa Voice” which reports on neighborhood news.
