 Access to public transportation is easy when there is a subway stop just one short block away, at Broadway and 137th Street. This station is served by the 1 train at all times. Bus service is also quickly accessed when there is a stop right in front of the building. The network of roadways within the immediate area is well-connected and provides convenient access to major routes, including the Major Deegan Expressway, Henry Hudson Parkway, Harlem River Drive, and the Triborough Bridge.

This block is considered a “Walker’s Paradise” on walkscore.com, with its close proximity to transportation and retail options, as well as access to outstanding park recreation facilities. The well-maintained, tree-lined and landscaped street with ornate turn-of-the-century mid-rise buildings and striking river views greatly contributes to the charm of the area.

Just across the street is the 28-acre Riverbank State Park, one of the most widely visited state parks in New York State. With its incredible views of the Hudson River, Palisade Mountains, and the George Washington Bridge, the park offers five major buildings that respectively house an Olympic-size pool, a 2,500-seat athletic complex, skating rink, 800-seat theater, and restaurant. The park also offers outdoor swimming and wading pools, four tennis courts, picnic areas, a 400-seat amphitheater, a running track, various athletic courts and fields, and docking facilities. All this is immediately accessible from 590-593 Riverside Drive’s front door – stepping out has never been such a pleasant experience!

Several other fabulous attractions and culturally-rich destinations are within a short walking distance. At the Manhattan School of Music, an 85 year old college that offers majors for all musical dedications less than a mile south, there are over 800 graduate, undergraduate, and doctoral students attending and about 275 faculty members. The college holds about 400 concerts per year. The world-famous Cotton Club is located just six blocks south, still operating and paying tribute to its highly influential roots. The jazz music night club originated in the early 1920’s and featured greats such as Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, and many more.

Also nearby are many quality schools and colleges and West Harlem Piers Park, offering riverside pedestrian and bike paths, recreational piers, and gorgeous river views. Countless reputable dining options are in the surrounding area, as well as grocery and discount stores – it is never a long venture to acquire everyday necessities.

590-593 Riverside Drive is a grand six-story residential building occupying the corner of Riverside and West 136th Street. The proud relic was built at the turn of the twentieth century and was meant to appeal to the wealthier, luxurious families of Manhattanville. For the modern tenant this translates to spacious rooms, fine architectural features, and an extra bedroom and attached half bath where the servant’s quarters were located.
