Carter’s Review

"This attractive, 19-story building at 531 Main Street on Roosevelt Island was erected in 1975 and has 375 co-operative apartments.  It is known as Rivercross and was one of the first four residential buildings to be erected on the East River island.  It was erected as a rental and became the first privatized co-operative on the island in 2014.  The vote was 314 in favor of privatization and only 35 against.  The other three buildings were Island House, Eastwood and Westview and the four were often referred to as the WIRE group.

It was designed by Johanson & Bhavnani."
