Route Description
NY 124 begins at a junction with NY 137 (Stone Hill Road / Westchester Avenue) in the town and hamlet of Pound Ridge. NY 124 proceeds eastward along Salem Road through Pound Ridge as a two-lane wooded residential street. The route bends northward through Pound Ridge, following the same backdrop west of Trinity Lake past some power lines and into a junction with Donbrook Road. The route bends northeast, passing a pond and a commercial business next to some residences before intersecting with Kitchawan Road, which connects NY 124 to NY 123 in the nearby town of Lewisboro. After Kitchawan Road, NY 124 bends northwest along a long stretch of residences, passing west of Lake Kitchawan after straightening to the north.
Continuing north through Pound Ridge, NY 124 remains the two-lane Salem Road, passing multiple residences on each side. The route bends northwest again, entering the hamlet of Boutonville. Boutonville consists of two intersections and few houses as NY 124 crosses through the center and is now in the town of Lewisboro. North of Boutonville, NY 124 retains its Salem Road moniker through Lewisboro, intersecting with NY 983D (signed as a spur of NY 124), which connects to NY 35. Meanwhile, NY 124 bends to the northwest, along Spring Street South, crossing one business before intersecting with NY 35 (Cross River Road) in Lewisboro. This junction serves as the northern terminus of NY 124.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“But however the forms of family life have changed and the number expanded, the role of the family has remained constant and it continues to be the major institution through which children pass en route to adulthood.”
—Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
“Why does philosophy use concepts and why does faith use symbols if both try to express the same ultimate? The answer, of course, is that the relation to the ultimate is not the same in each case. The philosophical relation is in principle a detached description of the basic structure in which the ultimate manifests itself. The relation of faith is in principle an involved expression of concern about the meaning of the ultimate for the faithful.”
—Paul Tillich (1886–1965)
