Overview of Riverview South at 55 East End Avenue

Riverview South, located at 55 East End Avenue, is a 15-story red brick cooperative designed by Emery Roth & Sons in 1951 and converted to co-op status in 1980. The building contains 182 units, many featuring private balconies and well-designed layouts with some offering East River views.

The building maintains a full-service profile with a 24-hour doorman and live-in superintendent. Recent renovations have enhanced the property's common areas, including the lobby, hallways, and elevators. The building offers a comprehensive amenity package featuring a newly renovated fitness center equipped with a Peloton bike, a furnished roof deck with panoramic river views, central laundry facilities, bike storage, and an on-site garage.

Situated in a quiet enclave of the Upper East Side, the building provides direct access to the East River Promenade and is just steps from Carl Schurz Park. The location offers convenient access to the Second Avenue subway (Q train), crosstown buses, and the NYC Ferry at East 90th Street. A Saturday Greenmarket operates nearby on 82nd Street between York and First Avenues.

The cooperative's policies accommodate modern living arrangements, with case-by-case approval for pied-Ă -terre use, co-purchasing, and guarantors. The building allows pets and offers residents a choice between Verizon FiOS or Spectrum services. Financial requirements include 75% financing allowance, and the building maintains a non-smoking policy.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

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.
