Carter's Review

This very elegant, red-brick, Georgian-style apartment house at 100 Riverside Drive on the northeast corner at 82^nd Street was erected in 1938.  It was converted to a cooperative in 1990. The 19-story building has 93 apartments.

It was built by Simon Brothers who subsequently sold it to Paul Kallaman, who sold it in 1963 to Klausner Associates Inc.

It was designed by Boak & Paris and is also known as327-333 West 82^nd Street.
