Midtown West residences

Midtown West — historically known as Hell's Kitchen or Clinton — stretches from roughly 34th to 59th Streets between Eighth Avenue and the Hudson. It has transformed over the last 20 years from a mid-century tenement neighborhood into the densest cluster of new-construction rental towers in Manhattan, driven by proximity to the Theater District, Columbus Circle, and the Broadway–Times Square corridor.

Ninth Avenue is the neighborhood's defining retail corridor: roughly 15 blocks of restaurants, bars, and independent food shops that stretch from the Lincoln Tunnel approaches up to Columbus Circle. The Theater District — nearly all of Broadway's 41 theaters sit within a few blocks of Times Square — defines the eastern boundary.

For renters, Midtown West offers access to every major rail hub (Penn Station, Port Authority, Grand Central is a 10-minute walk east) and a rental inventory with more new-construction choice than any other Manhattan neighborhood.
