Carter's Review
This robust, red-brick, 13-story building at 366 West 11th Street in the Far West Village was erected in 1986 as a residential condominium.
It has 80 apartments and was built by Shep Waldman, a second-generation construction man who had done several West Village conversions.
It was designed by Seymour Churgin of Architects Design Studio, which also designed the concrete vertically ribbed apartment building in a sunken plaza on the former site of the Midtown Hospital at 309 East 49th Street.
The building was known as River’s Edge.
Bottom Line
A chunky, red-brick, mid-rise, mid-block condo building in the very desirable West Village with a pretentious glass-enclosed, protruding entrance flanked by nice cast-iron railings and landscaping between red-brick stanchions topped by globes. It is just to the west of Julian Schabel’s well-known and very distinctive Palazzo Chupi.
Description
The set-back, red-brick building has a porte-corchere-like entrance that is glass-enclosed and has concrete benches and a three-step entrance underneath a large marquee. The entrance “structure” is flanked by attractive cast-iron fencing and landscaping between red-brick stanchions topped with globes and the façade of the building is sparcely dotted with small concrete squares.
The center of the building has balconies with solid brick walls but the balconies on either side are open with iron-work railings.
The center section of the front of the building has a triangular pediment on the 9th floor setback with a circular window.
The west side of the building has fully-enclosed glass balconies in the middle of that façade.
The top of the building has an exposed wooden watertank.
Amenities
The building has a full-time doorman, a roof deck, a live-in superintendent, many balconies and a laundry. It permits pets.
