Introducing Midtown East

From top to bottom, Midtown East is quintessentially New York. This is the Manhattan of skyscrapers, where the most famous skyline in the world has its roots.

A business district at its core, this neighborhood lets you experience the city at its fastest clip, with brisk-walking men and women in suits constantly moving to get ahead. And nowhere is the international flavor of the city more apparent, with the United Nations headquarters funneling in a truly global crowd.

With such a melting pot comes diverse tastes: some of the best Japanese restaurants in the city are hidden in non-descript office buildings, and one can easily lunch on a Cambodian sandwich, feast on Peking duck for dinner, and nibble on paella socarrat with that last glass of Rioja.

With Grand Central Terminal as your point of transportation, getting to any part of New York is a breeze. But if you decide to stay put, this gorgeous Beaux-Arts structure will make it worth your while: artisanal fare at Grand Central Market, oysters and bubbly at the Oyster Bar, and expertly mixed cocktails at Campbell Apartments all await your discovery.
