River Park Towers, Residential skyscraper in Morris Heights, Bronx, United States
The River Park Towers complex consists of two 38-story and two 44-story buildings rising along the Harlem River in the Bronx neighborhood.
The towers, completed in 1975 under the Mitchell-Lama Housing Program, marked a significant development in affordable housing initiatives during New York City's urban renewal period.
The buildings stand as representations of modernist architecture in the Bronx, featuring a distinct vertical pattern with eight-inch-square rusty-brown exterior bricks.
Located near the Metro-North Railroad Hudson Line and Major Deegan Expressway, the towers provide residents with multiple transportation options for accessing Manhattan.
These structures remain the tallest buildings in the Bronx since their construction, surpassing both Tracey Towers and the high-rises of Co-op City.
