The Riverway ia a parkway in Boston, Massachusetts. "The Riverway" is most correct, although locals use "Riveraway" and "The Riverway" interchangeably. "River Way" is incorrect.

The Riverway is a link in the Emerald Necklace system of green areas designed by Frederick Law Olmsted. In addition to larger parks, the Emerald Necklace includes these other parkways:

The Riverway starts at the Landmark Center end of the Back Bay Fens and follows the path of the Muddy River towards Olmsted Park. This river forms Boston's Eastern border with neighboring Brookline and is popular with local nearby residents in both municipalities.
