Constructed in 1922, 370 Riverside Drive is a 15-story brick, limestone, and terra cotta Georgian Revival residential building located in the Morningside Heights Historic District.

It includes a landscaped Roof Deck with spectacular views of the Hudson River and the surrounding area, a large Community Room, Children\'s Playroom, Bike Storage, Central Laundry and storage units. The building is pet-friendly, and on a case-by-case basis will permit pied-a-terres.

Located in a particularly rustic stretch of Riverside Park and the Hudson River Waterfront Greenway, it will have a special appeal to those who enjoy walking, jogging, biking, or a trip to the dog run. It is in close proximity to Columbia University and the vibrant culturally rich community that surrounds it, excellent shopping and transportation, and numerous highly regarded public and private schools. The 1 train, M104 and cross town bus are just two blocks away, and the coveted M5 bus line is just across the street.
