Overview of 812 Riverside Drive

812 Riverside Drive is a prewar condominium in Washington Heights near the Audubon Park Historic District. The elevator building features a marble lobby, live-in superintendent, part time lobby attendant, on-site laundry, and storage available for an additional fee. The building is pet friendly and located less than a block from the 1 train at 157th Street, with additional access to the C train at 155th Street, as well as M4, M5, and Bx6 bus lines. Riverside Park sits nearby, along with Columbia University, City College, and New York Presbyterian Hospital.

Many apartments in the building have undergone gut renovations while others retain original prewar details including crown molding, 9 foot ceilings, hardwood floors, transom windows, French doors, and in one case, a built-in ice box. Renovated units typically feature quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances including dishwashers and microwaves, windowed kitchens and bathrooms, and recessed lighting. Several units offer washer/dryer hookups or combo units, a notable convenience beyond the building's laundry facilities. Apartments range from one to three bedrooms, with larger units spanning approximately 1,200 to 1,380 square feet.

The building offers both western and eastern exposures, with many units providing park views along Riverside Drive. Layouts tend to be spacious with generous closet space, including walk-in closets in some units. Ceiling heights, original hardwood floors, and prewar proportions create rooms large enough to accommodate king size beds in primary bedrooms. Some three bedroom units feature flexible layouts that can be reconfigured to create larger bedrooms or home offices.

Sponsor units are available, requiring no board approval. The building operates under offering plan File # CD05-0636. Some units qualify for condo abatement for end users, reducing real estate taxes. The location provides convenient access to local restaurants, grocery stores including Met Fresh Organic and Associated, and Planet Fitness, while the nearby Hudson River Greenway and Riverbank State Park offer outdoor recreation options.
