New renderings have been revealed for River’s Edge, a forthcoming 11-story Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) building in Riverdale, The Bronx. Designed by Perkins Eastman and developed by Chicago-based Integrated Development II, the nearly 441,000-square-foot structure will yield 260 condominium units in one- to two-bedroom layouts for occupants 62 years and older. The building will be the latest addition to the 32-acre RiverSpring campus, which is located along Palisades Avenue between West 261st Street and the Riverdale train station.
The above main rendering previews the building’s prominent position when viewed from the Hudson River. The superstructure appears to follow the gentle curve of one of the streets along the southern edge of the RiverSpring campus, and features a light-colored façade lined with a uniform grid of windows and balconies on the northern end of the building. A bulkhead caps the flat roof.
Below is an additional rendering looking south at the landscaped grounds and a closer perspective of the façade.

Residential amenities will include a rooftop terrace overlooking the Hudson River, an indoor saltwater swimming pool, a spa, valet parking, a lounge with a bar, a music room, a private dining room. The building will implement HEPA filtration systems, as well as allowing residents to transition from independent living to assisted living, memory care, or skilled nursing on the same campus if needed.

Integrated Development II recently secured $633 million in tax-exempt bonds for the project, making it the largest senior living tax-exempt bond transaction to date. Specialty investment bank Ziegler closed on the transaction earlier this week. The loan was closed after the development team successfully achieved an 85-percent presales target.
Work has already broken ground on River’s Edge.

Decent design, but it should be built to passive standards for the comfort of the occupants.
An indoor, ‘saltwater’ pool!..wow
What’s with the unnecessary arrogant stuck-up remark? You never heard or swam in a body of saltwater before?
I have been in pools with water pumped in directly from the ocean. Will this water come from the Hudson?
I was being complimentary, but of course no good deed goes unpunished..
Will the bar have ladies night? I hope the DJ plays the BeeGees.
