Riverhouse at 2 River Terrace is the LEED Gold-certified Battery Park City condominium that houses Poets House and 92nd Street Y Tribeca — and was the building Robert De Niro chose to live in. Per and coverage, Leonardo DiCaprio and Tyra Banks have also been residents.
Design authorship is the starting point: the Polshek Partnership (now Ennead) architectural pedigree, paired with David Rockwell interiors, carries the same hand responsible for the William J. Clinton Presidential Library, the Rose Center for Earth and Space at the American Museum of Natural History, and a substantial institutional portfolio. Rare among Battery Park City residential, that architecture also shelters Poets House and 92nd Street Y Tribeca as in-building cultural anchors. The address has likewise drawn a trophy cultural resident roster — Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio (former), and Tyra Banks (former).
