Overview of The Netherlands at 340 West 86th Street

The Netherlands, designed by Neville & Bagge and erected in 1925, is a distinguished 12 story white brick condominium at 340 West 86th Street. Converted to condominium ownership in 1987, the building contains 70 apartments, primarily one- and two-bedroom units. The façade features a two-story rusticated limestone base, arched windows over the canopied entrance, and an attractive "weave" pattern decoration on the top floor above decorative balconies. The step-up lobby showcases a vaulted, coffered ceiling and wrought-iron entrance doors, setting an elegant tone for this prewar residence.

Apartments throughout the building commonly feature 10-foot ceilings, original prewar details including crown molding and decorative fireplaces, and hardwood or parquet floors. Many units have been renovated with contemporary finishes while preserving architectural character, including windowed kitchens with high end appliances (Bertazzoni, Fisher & Paykel, Miele are frequently mentioned) and bathrooms finished with Carrara marble, white subway tile, and fixtures from Duravit, Toto, Grohe, and Robern. Several units offer Hudson River views or glimpses, and many renovated apartments include central air conditioning. Washer/dryers are permitted in units, and the building allows protruding air conditioners.

Building amenities include a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent and porter service, a rooftop deck with panoramic views, gym, basketball court, ping pong room, bike storage, and on-site laundry facilities. The building has no garage or concierge. Common charges include heat and hot water. Located on a quiet, tree lined block between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive, The Netherlands sits steps from Riverside Park and close to the 1 train at 86th Street and Broadway, with excellent cross town bus service and proximity to Upper West Side shopping, restaurants, and cultural institutions. There is currently an assessment of $573 per month ending December 2026 for Local Law 11 compliance.
