Carter’s Review

"This massive, white-brick rental apartment building at 401 East 34th Street between First Avenue and the FDR Drive was a pioneer in the redevelopment of the East Midtown area near the Queens-Midtown Tunnel.

It was erected in 1985 by the Zucker Organization and was known as Rivergate until 2014 when UDR, Inc., a real estate investment trust with more than 50,000 apartments, changed its name to View 54 and installed new windows with roller shades.  James D. Klingbell, a past chair of the Urban Land Institute, is chair of UDR."

Broker & Resident Comments

This "luxury" high-rise in Midtown East offers "stunning river views" and a "prime location" near transportation hubs, though persistent elevator issues make for "frustrating waits." The building attracts a "young professional crowd" and features "renovated units" with "modern finishes," plus a "well-equipped gym." While the "helpful doormen" earn praise, ongoing construction and maintenance challenges test residents' patience. Best suited for "Manhattan newcomers" who appreciate the "bustling neighborhood" and don't mind the "energetic vibe" of a building that some say feels more "post-college" than "luxury living."
