This is one of the most exclusive buildings in the area simply because it does not trade often. Owners love being there and regularly trade up or down to just stay put in the building. Longtime staff and longtime owners create a wonderfully close and caring community. In addition, it is renowned for outstanding apartment designs, with every one of its 5 lines among the best in its category. The "B" line epitomizes this superlative design. It is classic in design, and considered amongst the best of its type anywhere on RSD. The bedrooms are split and the master has an en-suite bathroom, all rooms are large (24ft living room, 17ft bedrooms, and 16ft gallery) and the spacious gallery works perfectly for dining. The corner master bedroom is sun-flooded with open north & east exposure, and the windowed kitchen is sun-flooded with open east exposure. The two full bathrooms are beautifully renovated, the herringbone and strip hardwood floors are in beautiful condition, the ceilings are high and beamed, and there is terrific space from 5 large closets (2 are cedar) and full-wall built-ins in the living room and both bedrooms. All rooms enjoy side park and river views, excluding the kitchen. 315 Riverside Drive is painstakingly cared for and updated as needed. A spectacular 360-degree wrap roof deck with far-reaching views of the Hudson River, Riverside Park and the Manhattan skyline highlights its amenities, which also includes bike and bin storage and a central laundry room (a washer/dryer is permitted in the apartment). The building is located in the Upper West Side's most dynamic neighborhood - on a lovely park block of townhouses anchored by elegant full-service pre-war buildings on each of its four corners, and short walks to bustling restaurants and shops, new modern buildings, the thriving Columbia University campus and other schools. Of course, at its doorstep is the cherished Riverside Park itself, with its sports fields, tennis courts, outdoor cafe, playgrounds, and London plane tree-lined promenade. The building is also part of an exceptional block association (bloomingdale.org/). Lastly, it is located just steps from #1 train on Broadway.
