Hell's Kitchen Overview
Hell's Kitchen (or Clinton), the most Western section of Midtown, makes up the largest residential
area of Midtown West. Don't
let the name fool you, Hell's Kitchen is a safe, and very
desirable area to live. Nestled between Times Square (New York's
theatrical center), the Midtown Commercial Center (east of 8th Ave) and the
classic Upper West Side, Hell's Kitchen's central location is arguably the best
in New York City.
Hell's Kitchen Residents &
Culture
Hell's Kitchen is an eclectic mix of New Yorkers which includes, but is not
limited to, wealthy members of the financial community, renown artists and
starving artists, and low income families. Residents of Hell's Kitchen truly
represent the melting pot of New York City. Ninth Avenue is the central
drag of Hell's Kitchen where this melting pot congregates. Busting with fashionable restaurants,
bars, art galleries and shops, Ninth Avenue has recently become one of the most happening streets in Manhattan.
Hell's Kitchen Architecture & Rents
Residences in Hell's Kitchen are predominately 3-5 story walk-up buildings mixed
in with top quality new
construction. Consequently, rents can range dramatically depending on the
quality of the building and its proximity to Central Park and the Commercial
Center. In other words, some of the best deals in the city and some of the
most expensive rents in the city can be found here.
Hell's Kitchen Transportation & Commuting
To make this area even more convenient, Hell's Kitchen's 59th street
subway station connects to all major subways and is arguably the best commuting
Station in New York. The main above ground arteries for Hell's Kitchen are Eighth
and Ninth Avenues and the West Side Highway. Traveling to New Jersey is
also made easy by Hell's Kitchen's proximity to the Lincoln Tunnel. |
