This is the one you have been waiting for all these years - a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live in a quintessential Riverside Drive penthouse with dramatic City and River views. This extraordinarily sunny two bedroom, two-bathroom beauty has a wonderful feeling the moment you enter the elegant entry foyer. Your jaw drops as your eyes are drawn into the grandeur of the expansive step-down living room with its 10' 9"ceilings. The room leads directly to the floor to ceiling glass doors opening to the tremendous outdoor space. The wrap terrace is approximately 750sf with a wonderful flow, simply perfect for grand entertaining. The uniquely large living room has a wood burning fireplace and three bright exposures from picture windows. The master bedroom is a peaceful oasis floating above the water with full Northern views of the Hudson River. It has three closets plus a large dressing area, and is accented by the lovely flowers and plants adorning the terrace which is directly accessible from this wing of the apartment. The second bedroom is also generous in size with lovely South and East City views, an en-suite bathroom, and it too has direct access to the planted terrace. The kitchen has a beautiful window that gets delightful Northern light all day long. Built in 1937, 5 Riverside Drive is one of the top full-service co-operatives on the Upper Westside with a stunning Art Deco lobby and beautiful exterior details. Building features include a 24-hour doorman, a live-in Superintendent and a storage and bike room. Pets are permitted but the co-op does not allow pied-a-terres, guarantors nor co-purchasers.

Upper West Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Bracketed on its east and west borders by massive city parks, the Upper West Side (UWS) is known for its greenery, stately and elegant townhomes, safe streets and great schools, all of which make it a very desirable neighborhood for families. The UWS has maintained its community feeling, making it attractive to young professionals and retirees, both of whom want a sense of belonging in the place they call home.

Here you’ll find many apartment buildings, especially those along Central Park West. Historic architecture abounds, anchored by four luxury co-ops - the San Remo, Majestic, Century and Eldorado apartments - all of which have two towers on their interiors. They were built in the 1930s and their design was predicated on a 1929 building code that imposed a height limit on residences facing the street. There are also impressive row houses near Riverside Drive throughout the W 70 and 80 Streets. Above the 90s, you will find smaller buildings where walk-ups are very reasonably priced.

There are several world-class museums and venues dedicated to the performing arts. Plentiful dining can be found in the UWS. You will find everything from quaint Jewish delis serving up bagels and a schmear to sophisticated fine dining that has earned multiple Michelin stars, and everything you could possibly want in between. There is also abundant shopping and a vibrant nightlife.
