Riverside South (also known as Trump Place) is an apartment complex originated by Donald Trump and six civic partners (Municipal Art Society, Natural Resources Defense Council, New Yorkers for Parks, Regional Plan Association, Riverside Park Fund, and Westpride) on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, in New York City.
The $3 billion project on a 56-acre (23 ha) site between 59th Street and 72nd Street was to include 16 apartment buildings with a maximum of 5,700 residential units, 1,800,000 square feet (170,000 m2) of studio space, 300,000 square feet (30,000 m2) of office space, ancillary retail space and a 25-acre (10 ha) waterfront park. The studio and office space were not approved. Nevertheless, Riverside South is the biggest privately developed complex currently being built in New York City.
