*12 WINDOWS OVERLOOKING THE HUDSON RIVER AND GWB* A picture-perfect backdrop for an exceptional home! This sprawling 3 bedroom is one of the largest units in the River Arts with wide open space and generously proportioned rooms, all flooded with light and refreshing cross breeze. Enter a gracious gallery and feel the dramatic 44' expanse to the corner living room beyond. If you love more loft-like living, the kitchen and gallery walls can be removed to create an exceptional open-concept space. Two king-sized bedrooms and 2 full baths await in the opposite wing. The Master bedroom boasts a separate annex perfect for W/D, dressing room or home office. Throughout are 7 closets, hardwood floors and freshly painted walls. With some upgrades to kitchen and bathrooms, this gem can sparkle again. The rarely available A-line is quietly situated in the River Arts, the premiere full-service DM building in the Audubon Triangle of Washington Heights. This divinely situated building overlooking the Hudson River is beautifully landscaped and attended by a full-time doorman. Amenities include indoor parking for only $230 per month, a gym ($50/year), bike storage ($25/bike/year), 24/7 laundry room, storage cages, a resident Super plus 3 porters, an events/party room and more. The building allows W/D in the units and one dog per shareholder apartment (with certain breed restrictions). Moments away from the #1 train plus easy access to the Henry Hudson, the GWB and all major Metropolitan roadways. This vibrant neighborhood offers wonderful local eateries, markets, coffee houses and after work hangs including Boxers and Hilltop Park Alehouse. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy direct and easy access to the Hudson River Green-way, a beautiful dedicated bike-way along the river plus Fort Washington Park just at the bottom of the hill which has been recently refurbished with volleyball courts, soccer fields, modern playgrounds, handball, tennis and more. The River Arts is proud to be the first building in Audubon Park to go Green with the installation of Solar Panels and Composting! All this plus a LOW maintenance! Home should always feel this perfect.

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.
