Riverview Apartments
A five-building, 120-unit complex on South Plymouth Avenue near Barton Street across the Genesee River from the River Campus, Riverview Apartments serves as a residence hall for students. This new collegiate village helps meet the growing housing needs for University of Rochester students.
The apartments, which are about a 10-minute walk across a pedestrian bridge to campus, are available only to University students. Because the apartments are new, they offer amenities not available in existing campus housing—air conditioning and separate living rooms and kitchens.
