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.

Is Midtown West the same as Hell's Kitchen?

They refer to the same neighborhood, though different residents prefer different names. "Hell's Kitchen" is the historical name dating to the 1800s. "Clinton" was the community-board-preferred name through much of the 20th century. "Midtown West" is the contemporary real-estate-industry label, especially for new construction north of 42nd Street.
