§ About Midtown East
The neighborhood
Midtown East runs from roughly 42nd to 59th Streets between Fifth Avenue and the East River. It is the commercial heart of Manhattan — Grand Central Terminal, the Chrysler Building, the Seagram Building, and the United Nations all sit within its boundaries — and also one of the city's most distinguished residential districts on a block-by-block basis.
The sub-neighborhoods tell the story: Turtle Bay (45th–53rd east of Second), Beekman Place (49th–51st east of First), and Sutton Place (54th–59th east of First) each hold landmarked townhouse rows and pre-war cooperative buildings with river views that have remained among Manhattan's most coveted addresses since the 1930s.
Transit is the densest in the city. Grand Central's Metro-North and subway hub (4/5/6, 7, S) plus the new Long Island Rail Road concourse mean every major regional rail line converges within walking distance of any Midtown East address.
