Roosevelt Island

Roosevelt Island is a two-mile island in the East River running from Manhattan's East 46th to 85th Streets.

Roosevelt Island is a serene oasis with lots of green and breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline. Luxury doorman condos in high-rise buildings dot Roosevelt Island, which is a long, thin sliver in the East River just 700 feet from Manhattan Island proper. Many of the apartment buildings have their own playgrounds or gardens, and best of all, there’s a local shuttle bus to help you tool around Roosevelt Island itself.

Roosevelt Island has always been self-sufficient as far as retail, the Island has its own restaurants, dry cleaner and grocery store, and even a Starbucks coffee stores.

Roosevelt Island offer great outdoors which is one of Roosevelt Island’s biggest draws. With spacious parks, promenades for biking and running, playgrounds, ball fields, and a racquet club, you would never guess you were in New York City except for the sweeping views of the East Side, including the United Nations, the Chrysler Building, and the 59th Street Bridge. Getting to the city is quick and easy most residents take the Tram or the subway – 5 min ride.
