Transportation is a breeze with the 6 train at 51st and Lex, the E/M trains at 53rd and 3rd, the M50 crosstown bus on 50th, and the Ferry on East 46th and Lex. 2 Beekman Place has a Walk Score of 96 out of 100, making it a Walker's Paradise.

Paley, Alfred Lunt, Lynne Fontanne, Mary McCarthy, and John P. Marquand amongst others.

Beekman Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.  

This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.  

The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
