Originally built as a hotel in 1914, 243 Riverside Drive is now a 12-story, 45-unit cooperative known as The Cliff Dwelling. The design by Herman Lee Meader was influenced by Mayan and Aztec architecture, which can be seen in the building's friezes, but the lobby features Art Deco motifs as well. The building has two elevators, a live-in superintendent, full-time porter, and central laundry room. It is a short walk from Columbia University, Whole Foods, West Side Market, top restaurants and fitness, and the local and express subway stops.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
