Riverside South, Residential skyscraper complex in Lincoln Square, Manhattan, United States.
Riverside South is a large residential complex along the Hudson River in Manhattan, with multiple towers containing apartments, shops, and parking. The buildings of varying heights shape the waterfront along the 57-acre site where railroad yards once stood.
The site was transformed starting in 1997 from a railroad freight yard called the 60th Street Yard into a modern residential complex. This conversion of industrial land into a residential neighborhood was a major building project for the area.
The complex opens onto Riverside Park South, a waterfront green space where residents walk and spend time outdoors. The park creates a living connection to the river, shaping how people use and experience this part of Manhattan.
The complex is well connected by public transportation and sits next to a large waterfront park for outdoor activities. Visitors should know that the development is quite spread out and takes time to explore properly.
The tallest building in the complex, The Rushmore, rises to 130 meters and is one of the most striking towers in this area. Its outline stands out noticeably in Manhattan's skyline when viewed from the Hudson River.
