The gracious residential uptown flanking Central Park — grand pre-war apartment blocks, the great museums along 'Museum Mile', and family-friendly, tree-lined calm. Quieter and more local than Midtown, right on the park, with excellent subway links; the best base for the museums and green space.

On your doorstep
What you’re living next to if you stay here.
- 1.Central Park — 843 acres of lawns, lakes, woods and rambles dropped into the middle of Manhattan — the city's beloved back garden, where you can row a boat, catch a free summer concert, or just watch New York at play with the skyline rising over the trees. Free, endless, and different in every season.
- 5.The Metropolitan Museum — One of the greatest museums on earth — 5,000 years of art from Egyptian temples to European masters to a rooftop sculpture garden with a park-and-skyline view, all on the edge of Central Park. Vast beyond a single visit; pick a wing, and note the admission is pay-what-you-wish for New York state residents.
