Above the door, there is a stone balustrade which contrasts with the iron railings on the neighboring buildings. The windows at the second, third and fourth floors have simple frames. Four pairs of ornate, heavy brackets support a cornice between the third and fourth floors, an arrangement also seen in its neighbors. The fifth floor roof has been brought forward to provide a continuous band of windows across the front. The house provides a dignified transition to the magnificent corner “River Mansion” (337 Riverside Drive). Historic District: Riverside Drive-West 105th Street HD
