Riverside is a former village, now a suburb of Espanola, in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, in the southwestern United States.

[2] It is located in north-central New Mexico, on the left bank (east side) of the Rio Grande across the river from Española proper.

[3] As early as 800 A.D. the area was being intensively farmed by the pueblo people.

In 1598 when Capitán General Juan de Oñate arrived in northern New Mexico, the area was occupied by the Tewa pueblo people of Ohkay Owingeh (San Juan Pueblo).
