York River House is an 18-story red-brick condop at 1175 York Avenue, between 63rd and 64th Streets, directly across from Rockefeller University. Designed by Hyman Isaac Feldman and completed in 1958, the building contains 232 residences and was converted to a condop in 1989. Due to the low-rise nature of Rockefeller University, many units on York Avenue enjoy expansive East River views. To the west, the building sits adjacent to the 13-story Royal York complex, which encloses a large landscaped garden. The area experiences significant traffic due to an entrance to the FDR Drive at 63rd Street.
The building features a rusticated two-story stone base at its center, with an expansive frontage modulated by indentations at both ends. A canopied entrance leads to a full-time doorman lobby, and discreet air-conditioners are integrated into the façade. Residents benefit from a range of amenities, including a fitness center, children’s playroom, landscaped roof deck, bicycle storage, and an on-site garage.
York River House offers low maintenance fees and flexible ownership policies, allowing guarantors, pied-à-terres, co-purchasing, and a lenient rental policy. The building is conveniently located near Whole Foods, numerous restaurants, and is within a few blocks of the 4, 5, 6, E, F, and Q subway lines, with a Trader Joe’s coming soon to the neighborhood.
