Riverhouse at One Rockefeller Park is a 32-story, LEED Gold-certified condominium that opened in 2008 in Battery Park City. Designed by Polshek Partnership LLC with interiors by David Rockwell, the building features a distinctive U-shaped configuration with a 14-story west wing facing the Hudson River, a 13-story east wing facing Lower Manhattan, and a 32-story central tower. The handsome red-brick structure, also known by its various addresses including 300 Murray Street and 2 River Terrace, houses 243 apartments ranging from one to five bedrooms, including rare duplex units that offer townhouse-style living with river views.
As one of the first residential buildings to achieve LEED Gold certification, Riverhouse incorporates extensive green technology including twice-filtered air and water systems, triple-glazed windows, year-round humidity control, and sustainable materials like bamboo flooring and teak cabinetry. The apartments typically feature David Rockwell-designed kitchens with custom Italian teak cabinetry by Schiffini, Corian countertops, and high-end Energy Star appliances from Sub-Zero, Thermador, and Miele. Many units boast high ceilings, open floor plans, and luxurious bathrooms with travertine marble, frameless glass showers, and Neptune soaking tubs. The building's "J" line apartments are particularly coveted, with only one resale occurring in over 12 years.
The building offers extensive amenities including a 50-foot lap pool with pool house, fitness center with yoga studio, concierge service, attended parking, and unique features like a dog spa and the Treehouse Lounge. Notably, Riverhouse houses both the Poets House (the premier independent poetry library in the United States) and a New York Public Library branch. The prime Battery Park City location provides residents with direct access to Rockefeller Park and the Hudson River waterfront, while being steps from Tribeca, Brookfield Place, Whole Foods, and numerous dining and entertainment options.
Celebrity residents have included Leonardo DiCaprio, Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher, Tyra Banks, Cobie Smulders, Oliver Stone, and Dave Gahan, reflecting the building's appeal to high-profile buyers seeking luxury waterfront living with environmental consciousness. The combination of sustainable design, premium finishes, comprehensive amenities, and prime location has established Riverhouse as one of downtown Manhattan's most desirable residential addresses.
