Overview of River House at 435 East 52nd Street

River House has ranked among the city’s most prestigious apartment buildings ever since its 1931 opening. The 26-story, landmarked high-rise sits on the East 52nd Street cul-de-sac that faces the East River. Beaux-Arts and Art Deco motifs mix with eclectic elegance from the eagle-flanked, wrought-iron driveway gate to the tip of the curved, bell-like pinnacle. The palatial co-op features a garden, a fitness center, a swimming pool, and a full concierge service. The units, some of which span full floors, feature duplex levels, and include fireplaces, have housed a large number of luminaires and celebrities over the decades.

Built-in 1931 by Bottomley, Wagner, and White, this 26 story art deco building is known for its superb architecture and service. The privacy of the tenants is of paramount importance to the building staff. Adjacent to the apartment building resides the River Club, which offers residents peripheral membership and access to certain services for a small fee, as well as a streamlined application process and a discount for full membership to the club.

Carter’s Review

"Arguably the city’s, if not the world’s, finest apartment building, River House at 435 East 52nd Street is the epitome of "swell" living.

Erected in 1931 when its area still teemed with tenements, it was mocked in the famous and popular 1936 movie, "Dead End" that was Lillian Hellman’s adaptation of Sidney Kingsley’s play. The play and movie, which starred Humphrey Bogart, focus on the not always communal coexistence of the rich in their spectacular tower of luxury and the poor swimming in the adjacent river off the dead-end street.
