155 Riverside Drive, a significant architectural landmark in Manhattan, was designed by the renowned firm of Schwartz & Gross and constructed between 1910 and 1911. This 12-story building is located at the southeast corner of Riverside Drive and West 88th Street, forming part of the Riverside Drive-West End Historic District.
The structure, built by the Charter Construction Company, is a prime example of Neo-Renaissance architecture, featuring a façade composed of dark red brick, stone, and terra cotta trim. The building's U-shaped design includes a courtyard opening to the south, providing ample natural light and ventilation for its residents.
Originally costing $275,000 to build, the apartments were lavishly designed with spacious rooms and numerous closets. The building's address was chosen to reflect its more impressive location along Riverside Drive, rather than its entrance on West 88th Street.
The Riverside Drive facade is divided into three main sections: a two-story base, an eight-story midsection, and a two-story top, all adorned with decorative architectural elements. This historic building contributes to the district's architectural heritage and is a testament to Manhattan's rich history of residential design.

Double Agent Testimonial
To Whom it May Concern:
This is to give reference for Stephen Sunderland, who provided commercial real estate brokerage services to our firm, Double Agent. His work led to our signing of a five year lease and five year optional extension on 6,200 square feet of SOHO office space at a very competitive rate.
I was extremely impressed by Stephen's professionalism and follow-through in helping us not only locate this space but also in bringing it to closing. He showed a good knowledge of our needs and through that avoided wasting our time showing us unsuitable properties.
I would be glad to provide further reference for Stephen and you may feel free to call me about him. I can give him an unqualified recommendation.
Best regards,
Andrew Szabo
Chairman and CEO
Double Agent, Inc.
