590 West End Avenue is among the most sought after pre-war full service Cooperatives in the architecturally rich West 80s section of the avenue. Famed architects Neville & Bagge designed the building in a rich, terracotta hued, expressive Italianate style. When construction concluded in the mid-1910s, this grand, luxurious residential apartment house featured two classic 10-room apartments per floor, each enjoying 10-foot ceilings and the large windows characteristic of the era. Measuring over 3,000 square feet, the layouts featured large living rooms, a dining room, kitchen, 4 spacious bedrooms, and 3 staff rooms.

Over a short span beginning in 1929, the building reconfigured its floor plans, adapting them to the demands of the period. Each redesigned floor featured two 2-bedroom apartments, four 1-bedroom apartments, and a studio. Four penthouses were added at this time. During the Upper West Side rental to co-op wave of the late 1980s, the building converted and is now primarily owned by its resident shareholders. Several apartments have since been combined to meet the needs of a 21st century lifestyle. 590 West End Avenue residents enjoy the services of a full-time doorman, resident super, and a porter. There is a bicycle storage room, laundry room, and private storage lockers are available for rent. Shareholders communicate efficiently with the staff and managing agent, Orsid Realty, through BuildingLink.
