Very diverse and varies from working-class dwellings to houses in a more Tuindorp-like style.
Rivierenwijk is largely bordered by water: the Merwedekanaal and Vaartsche Rijn.
Het gedeelte ten oosten van de Croeselaan bestaat uit oude 2-laagshuisjes uit ca. 1910. De Coornhertstraat en de Spieghelstraat zijn kenmerkend voor dit deel van de wijk, ten westen van de Croeselaan bevinden zich kleinere jaren ’30 huizen verdeeld over 3 woonlagen
Housing development didn't start here until after the First World War. In the beginning the houses were meant for the upper working-class and built on behalf of the council and the housing associations.
The Kop van Rivierenwijk developed into a facility of the university with various laboratories, later supplemented with various training institutes. A large part of that was demolished in the 1990s and replaced with apartment buildings and small businesses.
Boodschappen kunnen gedaan worden aan de extra grote Albert Heijn aan de Vondellaan en/of de Coop aan de Croeselaan. Ook is de winkelstraat van Rivierenwijk “de Rijnlaan” zeer nabij
