Upper East Side of Manhattan
The Upper East Side of Manhattan, which consists of the area from Fifth Avenue to the East River and from 59th to 96th Streets, is known for its long standing social institutions and traditions. This is New York's "Silk Stocking District"; the residents along Fifth and Park Avenues and various interspersed streets make the Manhattan area one of the wealthiest neighborhoods in the United States.
Some of the city's best museums, most exclusive clubs and finest boutique shopping are found conveniently nearby. But don't be fooled. The Upper East Side of New York is just as susceptible to trendy bars and college crowds as any other park of the city, especially in the East 70's and 80's on the numbered avenues.
Upper East Side Apartments: Pros and Cons
Actually, as far as gentrified areas go, the Upper East Side of New York currently has many of the "cheapest" listings available for apartment rentals in Manhattan. This is partially because of its lack of public transportation. The 4, 5 and 6 trains (which run under Lexington Avenue) are the only subways which traverse the area. Not only are stations a long walk for residents living in Upper East Side apartments on streets like First Avenue or York Avenue, but once you get there you're likely to get smashed in to overcrowded trains during rush hour.
