I-87 and the Major Deegan Expressway begins in [[the Bronx]] at the northern approach to the [[Robert F. Kennedy Bridge]], where it connects to the [[Bruckner Expressway]] ([[Interstate 278|I-278]]) at a [[directional T interchange]]. The route heads west from the interchange, paralleling loosely with the [[Harlem River]] through [[Mott Haven, Bronx|Mott Haven]]. After {{convert|1|mi|km|spell=in}}, the highway makes a turn to the north, mirroring a change in the nearby river's course. It passes by [[Yankee Stadium]] on its way to [[Highbridge, Bronx|Highbridge]], where the Deegan connects to the [[Cross Bronx Expressway]] ([[Interstate 95 in New York|I-95]] and [[U.S. Route 1 in New York|US Route 1]] [US 1]) at the eastern approach to the [[Alexander Hamilton Bridge]]. The Deegan remains in close proximity to the Harlem River until the waterway turns westward at [[Kingsbridge, Bronx|Kingsbridge]] to form the northern edge of [[Manhattan]].<ref name="google">{{google maps |url=https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Exit+47&daddr=I-87+N&hl=en&ll=40.859785,-73.926659&spn=0.187993,0.445976&sll=40.905834,-73.877617&sspn=0.002935,0.006968&geocode=FX-WbgId2x6Y-w%3BFesscAId7rWY-w&gl=us&mra=mift&mrsp=1&sz=18&t=h&z=12 |title=Overview Map of the Major Deegan Expressway |access-date=December 26, 2012}}</ref> The Major Deegan Expressway is named after [[William Francis Deegan|Major William Francis Deegan]].

North of Kingsbridge, the expressway follows a generally northeasterly alignment, passing through the center of [[Van Cortlandt Park]] as it connects to [[Mosholu Parkway]] and [[Jerome Avenue]]. Mosholu Parkway also links the Deegan to the [[Henry Hudson Parkway|Henry Hudson]] and [[Saw Mill River Parkway|Saw Mill River]] parkways, which run parallel to the Major Deegan Expressway through the western Bronx and Manhattan. Past Jerome Avenue, the freeway gains a pair of [[service road]]s and heads north to the [[New York City]] line, where it becomes the [[New York State Thruway]] as it passes into [[Westchester County, New York|Westchester County]]. The last northbound exit on the Deegan connects to McLean Avenue, located north of the city line in [[Yonkers, New York|Yonkers]]. The exit 14 ramp leads to the service road in the Bronx but does not meet McLean Avenue until it crosses the county line. Southbound access to McLean Avenue is provided by Thruway exit&nbsp;1 in Yonkers.<ref name="google" />
