Summary

160 Riverside Boulevard is a 455-apartment Lincoln Square rental with large layouts, river views, a renovated lobby, fitness center and resident work lounge. Residents value the location and on-site staff, but prolonged construction, unreliable elevators, recurring water and heat interruptions, and difficult management communication are substantial drawbacks.

Reviews

160 Riverside offers unusually large apartments and a waterfront location, with recent renovations improving the lobby, lounge, gym and some homes. Those upgrades have come with extended disruption, and resident feedback remains sharply focused on elevators, construction and management response.

Management can be difficult to reach

Location

160 Riverside Boulevard is located at 160 Riverside Boulevard, New York, NY 10069. 160 Riverside is beside Riverside Park South and the Hudson River, west of the main Lincoln Square shopping and transit corridors. The 1 at 66th Street and Columbus Circle lines are walkable, but the west-side location adds distance to the subway and exposes some apartments to highway noise.
