Overview
About 222 Riverside Drive
The first new building in decades on Riverside Drive, this building is also one of its best. Completed in 1989, this 21-story condominium tower was developed by the London-based Royco Property Corporation of which Brian Rainbow was president.
The design by Fox & Fowle, one of the city's brightest architectural firms of the 1980's and early 1990's, is a very contextual one that complements and enhances its neighbors.
The red brick façade fronting on Riverside Drive has a center "column" of bay windows and its corner is chamfered at 94th Street, affording residents even more dramatic views of the glorious Hudson River.
The building's lower three floors are clad in Indiana limestone and the building has three setback terraces at its top.
Some apartments have fireplaces and the building has a garage as well as a concierge and doorman.
In 1992, as part of a settlement in bankruptcy court, almost half of the apartments were taken over by by 222 Properties Inc., a subsidiary of Chemical Bank.
