Upper East Side Overview
In
contrast to the other side of Central Park, the Upper East of New York offers a lifestyle, represented by beauty and a historical background that dates
back to the old money of families such as the Carnegies. The
designs of the buildings, beautiful
townhouses, art galleries
and famous museums are the key features of this area.
Rents
are high here because
the residential ambiance of the Upper East Side is as
close as one can get to living in a suburb inside of Manhattan. The Upper East Side is one of the cleanest,
wealthiest and quietest areas
of Manhattan. Beekman Place,
Sutton Place and Lennox Hill are prime examples of this pristine
culture. Carnegie Hill and Yorkville, the northern areas of the Upper East
Side offer a moderated version of the culture at a more affordable price.
Apartment
selections never run dry here and neither will the enjoyment of Central Park
or the East River waterfront park. The
current market has made living in the center and north parts of the Upper East
Side most affordable. As one gets closer to Central Park or Midtown
rents rise significantly. If saving money is a concern, consider living in the middle,
near the stores and restaurants.
