The Chatillion is a historic cooperative building on Riverside Drive with ornate architectural details and a majestic portico. It offers amenities like a roof deck with river views and is located near parks, cultural attractions, and public transportation.
The Chatillion is a seven story, 103 unit pre-war building whose angled façade and rounded corner shape the southeast corner of Riverside Drive and West 94th Street. Built as an apartment house in 1901, it became a co-op in 1985. Its colonnaded entrance cuts across the corner beneath a balustraded balcony, with the building's name, derived from a Parisian suburb, carved into the limestone above the doorway.
The two story rusticated limestone base, rounded pilasters and ornamental window surrounds give the Riverside Drive elevation much of its character. J. Cleveland Cady is often credited with the design, while Stein, Cohen & Roth are also identified as architects, with Bernard S. Levy as developer. The site had previously formed part of the grounds of Mt. Aubrey, a mansion destroyed by fire in 1877.
High ceilings, hardwood floors, oversized windows and substantial closet space recur in the apartments, while west facing homes look over Riverside Park and the Hudson River. The angled and rounded exterior carries into several floor plans, producing curved or polygonal bedrooms, and long entrance galleries recur in multiple layouts. Exposed brick and flexible dining areas also appear repeatedly.
The building has a part time doorman, a live-in superintendent, resident storage, central laundry and a roof terrace overlooking the river and park. Pets are permitted. Riverside Park is directly across the drive, the Joan of Arc Memorial is beside the building, and the 1, 2 and 3 trains stop at the 96th Street station on Broadway.

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.
