100 Eleventh Avenue
A dazzling mosaic of angled glass panes and equally dazzling river views make Jean Nouvel’s "vision machine” a major 21st century landmark and a state-of-the-art residence.
165 Charles Street
Richard Meier designed both the interiors and the exterior of this steel-and-glass West Village standout; the views from 165 Charles Street may well be the best in lower Manhattan.
The Rushmore - 80 Riverside Boulevard
The 425-foot-tall Rushmore offers boundless views of the Hudson River - and a lifestyle to match.
The Heritage at Trump Place - 240 Riverside Boulevard
Rising 31 stories above Riverside Park and offering all the customary amenities that come with the Trump name, the Heritage is one of the finest Hudson River-facing residences on the Upper West Side.
The Visionaire - 7 Little West Street
The city’s most environmently friendly condo tower overlooks the New York Harbor and the Statue of Liberty, and roof garden river views never fail to impress.
