790 Riverside Dr Unit 10D, New York, NY 10032

A welcoming, beautifully renovated, spacious, 3-4 bedroom,<br> 1.5 bathroom apartment in the grandest Beaux Arts apartment building of Upper<br> Riverside Drive, the Riviera, on 157th Street and Riverside Drive in<br> the Audubon Park Historic District. <br> Formal dining room which flows gracefully into an unusually large living<br> room, easily separable into what was the original layout, with a study (or<br> bedroom) side by side with a living room that is still large. Fireplace is decorative and can be moved. New<br> solid oak floors with walnut and maple trim, original bifold French doors, and<br> oak paneling in dining room with dentil molding. A wide hallway begins at the front door, and<br> runs past the public spaces, to two bright large bedrooms which look out on the<br> Hudson River and the GWB. Kitchen (with<br> Bosch washer/dryer) is big enough for four people to cook together and not get<br> in each other's way. The room behind the<br> kitchen, currently a study, can also be a bedroom, or can be folded into the<br> kitchen as it has been in several other D-line apartments in the building.<br> <br> This apartment, which is in very good, move-in condition is<br> in a 24-hour doorman building, with an accessible entrance, marble lobby,<br> live-in super, and a staff of handymen and porters. Ground-floor laundry,<br> package room, storage and bicycle storage. Two parking garages are underneath the<br> buildings across the street.<br> <br> The neighborhood offers supermarkets, home-grown cafes,<br> restaurants and bars, and two century-old cultural institutions, the Hispanic<br> Society Museum which has recently been reborn as an active performance space as<br> well as a place to see Goya's and Velasquez paintings, and the Academy of Arts<br> and Letters which has similarly opened its doors for public performance. Both<br> are 1.5 blocks from the back door of the Riviera. One block from the #1 train,<br> a few more from the C train or the A depending the direction, and two buses to<br> midtown Manhattan, the 4 and the 5. Three blocks to Hudson River Greenway, and<br> the renovated tennis courts, playground and ball fields, and a bit farther to<br> Riverbank State Park which boasts an Olympic sized pool, track, gym, all very<br> reasonable Columbia/NY Presbyterian Medical Complex are in the immediate<br> neighborhood, and the new Columbia Manhattanville campus as well as City<br> College are in a slightly wider definition of the neighborhood.
