Carter's Review

This handsome, 6-story, brown-brick, mid-block building at 801 Riverside Drive between 157th Street and Edward M. Morgan Place in Washington Heights was erected in 1920 and has 48 apartments.  It was converted to a condominium building in 2008.

It is convenient to Riverside Park, public transportation and there is shopping nearby on Broadway.

It is also close to Audubon Terrace and the Chapel of the Intercession.
