The distinctions between them may be confusing for a visitor, but the area’s charms are obvious. The historic Boston Post Road runs through Rye, connecting such noteworthy addresses as the colonial estate of Founding Father John Jay and the palatial spires of Whitby Castle. A more recent but still historically significant site is Playland, a vintage amusement park home to one of the oldest wooden roller coasters on the East Coast. Nicknamed “the Gateway to New England,” Port Chester has become a notable stop for touring musicians; the village’s prewar Capitol Theatre has hosted the likes of Willie Nelson, Neil Young, Bonnie Raitt, and Herbie Hancock.
