About This Property
Just Listed Beaux-Arts Beauty 334 Riverside Drive
A once-in-a-generation canvas on the elevated sweep of Riverside Drive, just off Duke Ellington Boulevard (W. 106th Street): a 25-foot-wide, landmarked Beaux-Arts townhouse with direct Hudson River and Riverside Park views from every level and set among the storied mansions known as the "Seven Beauties" (330-337 Riverside Drive).
Approximately 7,960 SF across six stories, with an elevator, private backyard, and multiple terraces. This is the rare property that reads as a true "forever" home and an income-producing asset with meaningful upside.
The Opportunity
334 Riverside is currently configured as multiple residences (11 bedrooms / 8 baths / 27 rooms), including a dramatic duplex penthouse (8 rooms, 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, with two eat-in kitchens and 3 terraces). Several apartments are floor-through, many enjoy open park/river sightlines, and select units have in-unit laundry. A separate service entrance supports clean operations and future renovation logistics.
Whether your vision is: a single world-class townhouse, a hybrid owner's triplex/quad + rental income, or a high-end multi-residence, the underlying ingredients -- width, volume, view corridors, and landmarked architectural pedigree - cannot be manufactured.
The building is partially occupied by rental tenants; certain units, including the penthouse, are currently vacant, creating flexibility for near-term use and repositioning.
Architectural Presence + Original Detail
The home retains the kind of prewar craft buyers rarely find intact: grand vestibule and lobby millwork, library/study detail, skylights, cathedral-style ceilings, and multiple mantle fireplaces. The Beaux-Arts brick-and-stone facade presents beautifully and signals long-term value the moment you arrive.
A Layered History You Can Feel
334 Riverside sits within the Riverside-West 105th Street Historic District, with 334-336 designed by Hoppin & Koen in the early 1900s.
In 1905, the townhouse is documented as the initial home of the Nippon Club, founded by Dr. Jkichi Takamine.
And the block's cultural legacy is real: Duke Ellington lived at 333 and is widely reported to have previously acquired No. 334 as part of his Riverside Drive footprint.
Riverside Park as Your Front Yard
Riverside Park and Riverside Drive (72nd Street to St. Clair Place) are a designated NYC Scenic Landmark, protecting the character and view experience that makes this address what it is.
From morning runs to dog runs, tennis/pickleball fields, and waterfront paths, it's perfectly situated for daily living, plus Broadway conveniences and quick access to the 1 / B / C subway and major bus lines.
Building Systems + Improvements
Boiler/burner replacement (approx. 7 years old; replaced older equipment) All windows replaced (front and rear) Elevator modernization work (cables, motor/commutator work, controller/wiring updates) Rear waterproofing with masonry cement 8-meter electric meter bank Water piping in brass/copper Upgraded common areas (fresh paint; hardwood floors) Painted "copper" cornice; rubber roofing on penthouse extension/terrace

Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
Private outdoor space is one of the first things this building offers, with a private backyard, multiple terraces and rooftop access, and over 60 square feet of private outdoor space. The duplex penthouse has three terraces of its own, so the top floors have their own places to spend time outside.
At about 7,960 square feet across six stories, the terraces and backyard sit against a lot of floor area. The listing describes direct Hudson River and Riverside Park views from every level, and the elevator serves all six floors.
It's a 25-foot-wide landmarked Beaux-Arts townhouse. Stairs and upkeep come with a building of this type, and the elevator covers the daily trips up and down.
Riverside Park is about a one minute walk away, and the 103 St station on the 1 train is about 5 minutes on foot. The Hudson is about 0.2 miles off, so the water and the park are close enough to be part of an ordinary week.
The listing notes that select units have in-unit laundry, and washer and dryer hookups are part of the setup, so it will vary by apartment.
