| | Bronx Blotter, 48th Precinct, Vyse Avenue, 2002 (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | 1975 Vyse Avenue, on the west side of the avenue, between Tremont Avenue and the proposed 178th Street (where a sewer is being put in), there is a spring. |
 | | The whereabouts of this well, and of the Vyse Avenue spring, were told me by the Irish foreman of the Italians who are now building the sewer in 178th Street near the Southern Boulevard. |
 | | The Vyse family owned an estate called Rocklands and, when the property was divided into city streets, this avenue was first called Chestnut Street (from E. Tremont Avenue to Bronx Park South), as it was lined with trees of that sort. |
