While the surrounding areas provide proximity to business, United Nations, and the shopping and entertainment districts of Bryant Park and Herald Square, the neighborhood thrives on the livability with local parks, restaurants, and grocers. Residents enjoy the beautiful waterfront of the East River Esplanade and bikeway. Trader Joe’s and Equinox Gym are also close by.
