| The Upper East Side is where upscale, designer boutiques beckon to passers-by on Madison Avenue, the "museum mile" on Fifth Avenue has an incredible number of museums and art
galleries, and Central Park acts as a very large, landscaped backyard. Park Avenue symbolizes upscale, old money elegance, however east of Lexington Avenue condos, co-ops, and townhomes house
young families and professionals. At the neighborhood's southern edge on 59th Street, Bloomingdale's faces Midtown East. Interestingly, in spite of its reputation as a very pricey place to live,
the Upper East Side isn't necessarily that exclusive when it comes to lodging. Check out the Bentley Hotel and Turin Palace hotel, both moderately priced. |
