Overview of The Solaire at 20 River Terrace

Upon its 2003 completion as a luxury rental, The Solaire at 20 River Terrace was the first LEED Gold-certified high-rise in the United States — introducing cutting-edge technologies such as rainwater irrigation to sustain green roofs, photovoltaic cells for electricity, and a state-of-the-art air conditioning system with MERV14 filtration that removes harmful pollutants from the air.

In its new chapter as a condop, The Solaire’s interiors have been reimagined by the renowned COOKFOX Architects to celebrate its awesome Hudson River, Rockefeller and Teardrop park views. All studio to three-bedroom residences are fitted with noise-reducing Low-E casement windows, multi-zone central air with Wi-Fi enabled thermostats, and in-unit washer/dryers. Select residences feature private terraces. Homes in the elite COOKFOX Collection have 5” white oak plank flooring and upgraded finishes.

The Solaire's amenities have been reimagined by COOKFOX to provide airy, light-filled common spaces. The fitness center is outfitted with state-of-the-art equipment, including two virtual training systems. The residents’ lounge includes a catering kitchen, dining room, lounge area, and reading nooks immersed in the greenery of Teardrop Park. The landscaped roof terrace offers BBQ grills, multiple seating and dining areas, and dramatic Hudson River views.

Additional conveniences and amenities include 24-hour concierge service, porters, a live-in resident manager, a children's playroom, a media room, and bike room. In-building parking and electric vehicle charging are available for an additional fee.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "green" waterfront gem offers "first-class" living with "breathtaking" river views and a "hotel-like" experience thanks to its "exceptional" staff. The LEED-certified building boasts "filtered fresh air," a "beautiful roof deck," and prime location "next to the park." While some gripe about the "10-minute walk to the subway," most agree the "amazing views" and "professional service" make it worthwhile. The "well-maintained" property features "high-speed elevators," an "adequate gym," and "incredible recycling program," though parking can be "outrageous." Perfect for those who want to "live in the city but feel like you're in the country" with its "beautiful green lawn" and waterfront setting.
