160 Riverside Drive is an established, sought-after cooperative located at the northeast corner of 88th Street, an especially graceful, quiet stretch of Riverside Drive, distinguished by the iconic Soldiers and Sailors monument at 89th Street. The building was built in 1929 by noted architect, Gaetano Ajello, whose glazed brick and terra-cotta buildings are credited for shaping the look of the Upper West Side. Several of Ajello's distinctive design elements are in evidence: decorative balconies, arched windows (at the seventh floor and the upper floors) and the angled structure itself, with one window per floor facing southwest. Amenities include 24 hour doorman service, live-in super, private storage, laundry room and bicycle room. The building is pet-friendly.

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.
