RNA Houses at 132 West 96th Street is a 14 story, 208 apartment co-op completed in 1967. Designed by Edelbaum & Webster for Riverside Neighborhood Assembly, it formed part of the West Side Urban Renewal Project.
The long slab and uniform cellular façade draw on the design of I. M. Pei’s Kips Bay Plaza. Its honeycomb pattern, sometimes characterized as a concrete beehive, gives the post-war building a strong architectural identity while maintaining the street wall along West 96th Street.
RNA Houses was one of four middle income developments first planned for the West Side Urban Renewal Project in 1963. The group also comprised Strycker’s Bay Apartments, Goddard Riverside House, and Columbus Park Towers, with projects ranging from 161 to 234 apartments and from 14 to 27 stories.
The building is set slightly back from the mid-block stretch between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues, with broad sidewalk landscaping and a three step entrance. A garden, garage, and live-in superintendent complete the building’s amenity package.
