Lexington in the Central Park area is a lot of what you’d expect – expensive apartments, shopping, and hotels. There is also the obscure and unexpected hostel for international student visitors on th...

East 27th Street is a nice place to settle into the city. It's close to everything and is only a block away from Madison Square Park. Because of it's location real estate is hard to come by but worth...

I like most people had heard of Madison Avenue, but for some odd reason in the many times I visited the City I was never inclined to visit it. This was until a friend of mine decided he wanted to eat...

"Actually pretty which is surprising for this area"

- JenMac
East 37th starts off pretty depressing, but, unlike a lot of the streets in the neighborhood, it actually turns around. There are a couple of luxury high rises right on the East river that I'm sure a...

East 40th street in eastern Manhattan is only a few blocks from the busy FDR Drive, but it's also only a few blocks away from Park Avenue in the other direction. I love this area because it's full of...

"Lively, but a bit dark"

- Anemone10
Park ave south is the section of Park ave that stretches towards Union Square. Although The Square itself is usually quite lively, Park ave itself is quite dark. Not many stores there stay open at ni...

"Some gorgeous homes"

East 38th starts off at the East River with an old Con Ed plant and an animal shelter. It's not exactly the most welcoming start to the street, but the Con Ed building is actually really cool looking...

"Big Buildings and little else"

- JenMac
39th starts off on the East River with an old Con Edison Plant that they're in the works to demolish and replace with high rise condos and commercial spaces. I'm not sure how I feel about this. For...

"The Copper Chimney"

"The low end Park Avenue"

- JenMac
Park Avenue South turns into Park Avenue proper at 32nd street and there is definitely a distinct turn in architecture on this block if not necessarily as swift a turn in energy. There are some great...

"Near the Hustle and Bustle "
