street for football lovers

01/12/2008 01:25:36 -08:00

Pubs are mostly located in this street .The pubs in this street are with a nice, subdued ambience. What decoration there is on the walls consists primarily of memorabilia for the English football (a.k.a. soccer) club Liverpool. This is a great place to watch a match. Surprisingly, weekend nights oft...

Quiet and Clean

20/11/2008 10:06:04 -08:00

This street is nice because it not only boasts proximity to the subways on 23rd street, along with the thriving restaurant and night life in the area, but it is also fairly quiet and proves to be a nice place to live. Stretching from Riverside Drive to Park Ave So, it’s wonderful in how close it is...

Fun, and Not too Crowded

20/11/2008 09:48:08 -08:00

Ninth avenue is one of Manhattan’s long lost treasures. Running more or less at the edge of the city, it is one of the areas less frequented, especially in the winter. It is a few blocks away from any subway stops, and so people are contented with the closer alternatives. Besides stemming off at the...

Convenient, But Loud and Dirty

20/11/2008 08:59:11 -08:00

This street is great if you need to take a train somewhere, or if you need to go to the post office. West 31st street is the southern border of Penn Station, and so has very easy access to the LIRR, New Jersey Transit, Regional and far travelling trains. This also means that there are always people...

For An Appointment Only

20/11/2008 08:24:45 -08:00

Up here, is essentially the edge of Manhattan. The only purpose for coming up here is to visit one of the hospitals that are in this area. The New York Presbyterian Hospital particularly has many specialists that deal with anything from Cardiology to Orthopedics to Chiropractors and Physical Therapi...

Magical And Entertaining!

20/11/2008 07:45:35 -08:00

West 59th street is one of my favorite streets in New York. Not only does it hug the bottom half of Central Park, where all of the horse carriages are, it also holds Columbus Circle and the Time Warner Center. There is nothing more fun than a day of window shopping at the exquisite stores in this ar...

Mostly Residential, But Highly Convenient!

20/11/2008 07:30:26 -08:00

West 18th street is one of those iconic New York City streets that people always describe when they talk about living in the center of the universe. Branching off from Union Square and stretching all the way to Riverside Drive, West 18th street pretty much has anything you would need if you were to...

On Floral Court

08/11/2008 19:37:01 -08:00

Floral Court is filled with various small businesses and shops. I really enjoy this area of Brooklyn near the East River. It was very easily accessible to the midtown Manhattan and was very walkable and convenient. The entire neighborhood would lend itself perfectly to a family or young couple. I re...

Henry Street Delights

08/11/2008 19:01:29 -08:00

There’s not much going on in the way of fun on Henry street, and similar to those around it, it’s only perk is that it is nearby the other more eventful streets. I did, however, enjoy the wonderful architecture and friendly atmosphere of the street. It is nearby the park and is very conveniently loc...

On Lincoln Street

08/11/2008 19:00:41 -08:00

Lincoln Street is filled with various businesses and small shops in this fluid and exciting neighborhood in New York. I really liked the look and feel of the area and also the friendly people.

On Seneca Avenue

08/11/2008 18:57:52 -08:00

Seneca Avenue is a nice street. This neighborhood was also fairly lively and filled with activity, a wonderful place for a young couple or someone new to the city entirely. Living in NYC definitely has its perks, and this neighborhood is really part of the reasoning behind it. It’s easily accessed b...

On Washington Street

08/11/2008 18:41:31 -08:00

A variety of businesses line this street, though there isn’t much in the way of “a lot of fun.” This is what I refer to as a residentially convenient street, with various goods and services being offered to the people who live in the neighborhood, but to an outsider, it’s not worth the trek. These t...

On Rose Street

08/11/2008 18:35:12 -08:00

With many small businesses, churches, and restaurants, this street has constant traffic, but perhaps not constant fun. I think that this would be a nice street to live on, though it seems that there are a lot of run down places on this block without a lot of wherewithal to fix anything up. There are...

A Nice Street

08/11/2008 17:49:12 -08:00

This street is filled with small businesses making the area more convenient and heavily trafficked. Throughout the neighborhood, there were a lot of families and people and there was a nice vibe and look about the place. I would suggest that you try to make a stop here, if you can, on your next trip...

On Elizabeth Street

08/11/2008 17:48:37 -08:00

Elizabeth Street is a quaint street in the vilalge. I like this area of the city which is filled with small businesses and friendly people. This section of the city is extremely quaint, and a nice oasis from the busy downtown area. Living in the borough is not only comfortable, but also extremely ni...

On Manhattan Avenue

08/11/2008 17:40:24 -08:00

Manhattan Avenue is a nice street near Central Park. It is filled with small businesses and a quaint atmosphere. The views of the river are very nice and this area is well trafficked, but not terribly loud. It’s a nice oasis from the hecticness of the midtown area. I really like this neighborhood an...

On Fredirck Douglass Boulevard

08/11/2008 17:20:01 -08:00

This street is filled with stores, restaurants, and the wonderful feel that is Harlem. Harlem is one of my favorite neighborhoods in the city and one of the great historic pieces of the city. I think that anyone can enjoy this area, for living or for visiting. You'll find historic restaurants and ho...

On Bennett Avenue

08/11/2008 17:14:57 -08:00

Bennett Avenue is a nice street. With the cool breeze coming from the East River, not to mention some of the views, this street is a prime place in the city to live. This neighborhood was also fairly lively and filled with activity, a wonderful place for a young couple or someone new to the city ent...

On Forest Avenue

08/11/2008 17:08:15 -08:00

Forest Avenue wasn’t really all that impressive. It was mainly residential and the residences weren’t all that great to look at. All in all, it was an average street on an average block. For more convenience, I suggest that you try something nearby. There always seemed to be people on the street and...

On Woodside Avenue

08/11/2008 16:55:56 -08:00

Another street with convenience designed for the residents, Woodside Avenue, is quite simply home to many people. There is nothing remarkable here, and as landmarks and sights tend to dwindle as you climb further uptown, there seems to be an overall lack of things to do in terms of a touristy nature...

On Colonial Avenue

08/11/2008 16:54:56 -08:00

On King Street

08/11/2008 16:31:30 -08:00

While there are plenty of business, churches, and restarants, this street has constant traffic, there isn’t constant fun.

08/11/2008 16:11:40 -08:00

Prince Street is at the heart of the village and is filled with great shopping, dining, and entertainment. This street is always filled with people and really classically personifies city life. I really enjoy this part of the city, as most New Yorkers do, for its plain clothes sophistication and boh...

North Moore Street

08/11/2008 16:07:59 -08:00

Here, you’ll find several small businesses and things to do, though there isn’t really much in the way of fun. Of course, as with any city, you have residential areas and you have commercial areas. Generally, boroughs are a mix of both, but this neighborhood is mainly residential. I wouldn’t think t...

On Evans Road

08/11/2008 16:06:44 -08:00

There’s really not a lot going on this street, though you will find various small businesses and things to do. I wasn’t very impressed and thought that the area was generally run down, but you might find more to like on other blocks nearby. All in all, an average street in the city.

On Putnam Avenue

08/11/2008 15:50:14 -08:00

Putnam Avenue is chalked full of businesses, bars, schools, and restaurants. I like this area a lot and think that it is a fantastic place to live and work.

Saint Luke's Place

07/11/2008 15:18:05 -08:00

St. Luke's Place is extremely convenient due to the several nearby metro stations. Though in ths neighborhood, many people do have cars, which is more convenient if you have a family. But if you’re single, there’s no reason you can’t go green! This is a nice neighborhood, and seems like a wonderful...

On Irving Place

07/11/2008 15:13:43 -08:00

In the wonderful Washington Square Park area of New York City, Irving Place is a great street.

On Willow Street

07/11/2008 14:30:55 -08:00

You won’t find much in the way of food and fun here, but you might find a little more than you were expecting. The nearby streets are very pretty and I think that it’s a nice oasis from the city, which can be a little too much to handle at times.

On Pine Street

07/11/2008 14:28:33 -08:00

A Convenient Truth

07/11/2008 14:26:51 -08:00

Dartmouth Street is filled with several small and service oriented businesses, ranging from realty offices to other specialized services.

On Madison Street

07/11/2008 14:10:29 -08:00

Madison Street isn’t much of anything. You won’t find much in the way of anything on thisNew York street. Though it wasn’t really a sight for sore eyes, this street was calm and nicely populated, and I didn’t feel that I could make a home here, though there isn’t much in the way of food and excitin...

On Monroe Street

07/11/2008 14:09:34 -08:00

This is a residential block, so if you're looking for housing this may be somewhere to look into. It's not very clean, but it’s cheap. This is a great part of the city. There is a lot of culture and great people here, and I think that you might be happy here in the long run.

Lively, but a bit dark

07/11/2008 13:47:17 -08:00

Park ave south is the section of Park ave that stretches towards Union Square. Although The Square itself is usually quite lively, Park ave itself is quite dark. Not many stores there stay open at night, although there are some great restaurants to check out, such as flute, and many sushi bars. It'...

Start or End a Night out in Chelsea

07/11/2008 13:33:34 -08:00

Tewnty third street is fantastic, it has anything you could possibly want to either start off or finish off a night out in Chelsea. You can catch dinner at the giant BBQ, with its famous margarita fishbowls, or you can go to any of the other diners or a bit finer restaurants around. It is a super co...

Hip, Young, Vibrant

07/11/2008 13:07:49 -08:00

One of the most vibrant streets of Chelsea, W 17th street is full of great food, shopping, and an overall positive atmosphere.

Nice area, good movies

07/11/2008 12:14:13 -08:00

whenever I am around this area, I always walk by the theater on 62nd street and Broadway to see what they are showing. It is usually an eclectic mix of undercurrent movies that usually end up being fantastic to watch. This area is usually quiet at night, and thus a movie on 62nd street is usually a...

The Hills Are... Dead

07/11/2008 12:12:32 -08:00

Here, you’ll find El Rancho Jubille, or the Jubillee Ranch, is filled with wonderful Dominican music, food, and culture. The housing options may not be so sweet, but this restaurant is well worth an adventure. I’d say that it’s one of the better Dominican food establishments in Inwood.

On Fabulous Lex

07/11/2008 12:11:57 -08:00

Lexington Avenue is one of the most famous streets in New York City.

A Nice Street

07/11/2008 11:57:56 -08:00

There is a lot going on in this neighborhood. As a person who is living on the Upper West Side, this seems like about a thousand miles away, but everything downtown seems a lot quieter and a lot calmer, though this could be my perception (I live near a bridge as well). So, I liked that about the str...

On Highland Boulevard

On 15th Drive

03/11/2008 18:12:26 -08:00

Not enthralled by this Queens street. I wasn’t very impressed. I didn’t think that it was nice to look at and thought that because the streets around it were relatively convenient, that it would also house the same benefits, but I was sadly mistaken. This may not be the place for the NYC culture you...

While there are plenty of business, churches, and restaurants, this street has constant traffic, there is constant fun.

On 20th Avenue

03/11/2008 18:08:37 -08:00

This area is a bit run down and is definitely not a place I would recommend for living options.

On Petracca Place

03/11/2008 18:08:12 -08:00

On 138th Place

03/11/2008 18:07:35 -08:00

This area is a bit run down and is definitely not a place I would recommend for living options.

On Locke Avenue

03/11/2008 18:05:35 -08:00

On 136th Street

03/11/2008 17:47:56 -08:00

This street is an important one if you have kids: it's got a YMCA and several schools. For that reason, I'd call it a family area, with businesses and services oriented to that clientel. It's not the most interesting street I've visited in Queens, but it's in a nice neighborhood. All in all, a nice...

There are parks throughout the neighborhood, a nice retreat from the concrete jungle known as Manhattan. All in all, a beautiful stree...

On North Drive

03/11/2008 17:38:11 -08:00

North Drive is a nice mainly residential street near the water in a great and more affluent section of Queens. Though other streets nearby might have more to offer in the way of dining and shopping, this street is a nice place to call home. You won't find much in terms of cheap housing here, but you...

On Summit Place

03/11/2008 17:37:01 -08:00

Summit Place in Queens has some really beautiful housing options. It's in one of the nicer residential neighborhoods in this wonderful borough. On the nearby streets, you might be able to find more in terms of places to eat, but all in all I think that this would be a wonderful place to raise a fami...

West 155th Street

03/11/2008 16:58:48 -08:00

I didn't like this street. It was unattractive, the people were rude, and it was very smelly. I wasn't impressed and don't think you'll see this street on any tours of New York City anytime soon. It's fairly convenient though with the C train located on this street and it is close to the metro!

West 154th Street

03/11/2008 16:58:13 -08:00

The blocks in this neighborhood vary greatly, as some are filled with life and that NYC magic and others are lackluster. This is a tree-lined street in a somewhat lackluster neighborhood, and I think the buildings here are great. I also think it is more convenient than other streets and there is gen...

West 166th Street

03/11/2008 16:57:52 -08:00

This street is very close to the hospital if you’re sick, and also offers a bit more than other streets in terms of food options. Similar to other streets in this area, this is mainly residential. Typically, the restaurants and shopping run on the Avenues, while the streets are reserved for housing...

On 164th Avenue

03/11/2008 16:57:14 -08:00

There's not really a lot going on on this street. It's near some more interesting streets, but all in all is a less interesting place to be in comparison to other places in the neighborhood. I really do like this neighborhood and think that it is well connected, but I wasn't really impressed with th...

On 165th Avenue

03/11/2008 16:55:20 -08:00

There are a few small service oriented businesses on this street. I think that it is a great neighborhood and has a nice location, not to mention that it is filled with people and things to do. This is a mainly residential neighborhood with some nice housing options. All in all, I think that this is...

On 156th Avenue

03/11/2008 16:51:30 -08:00

156th Avenue runs through both Flushing and Howard Beach. There are several small service oriented businesses throughout this neighborhood and on this street. I think that it is a nice neighborhood for families and couples and a nice retreat from the city. It is near the Belt Parkway, keeping it a l...

On 157th Avenue

03/11/2008 16:49:14 -08:00

This street has many small businesses and various stores. It's a main avenue in a busy neighborhood, and I think it's a good place to live especially if you're thinking of moving to this section of the city. It's very well accessible and in a great location.

On 158th Avenue

03/11/2008 16:45:55 -08:00

158th Avenue doesn't have as much going on as the nearby streets do. I think that it is a nice neighborhood in a great section of Flusing. This street is mainly residential and doesn't have a lot to offer in the way of businesses, but has a nice family feel. All in all, a great street!

Filled with Great Things

03/11/2008 16:38:35 -08:00

This street has a diner, a high school, churches, and various small businesses, shops, and store. Really it is a really nice place to live if you're thinking of moving to Flushing. I really like this neighborhood. It's convenient and filled with things to do, not to mention a nice family feel. All...

On Malba Drive

Malba Drive is a nice street in a great neighborhood in Brooklyn. It's mainly residential and with the beautiful homes in this neighborhood, you'll be hard pressed to make a complaint about this wonderful street. I think that this might be one of my favorite new neighborhoods I've visited here in th...

On 161st Avenue

03/11/2008 16:30:23 -08:00

161st Avenue is located near the East River. It is in a wonderful neighborhood. I really liked the look and feel of this street, and living really anywhere in New York in optimum. There's great public transportation and there is always something going on. Though this street doesn't house a lot in te...

On Cryders Lane

03/11/2008 16:28:07 -08:00

Cryders Lane is in a nice section of the city, but I don't think it was the most attractive or accessible as other streets in this Flushing neighborhood. I like living in the outerboroughs though. It's a lot more calm and not as as hectic as the city. On this street, you'll find some housing options...

On 152nd Avenue

03/11/2008 16:25:47 -08:00

This street is particularly interesting. It didn't have as much to offer and is right near the Nassau Expressway, so there is a lot of noise and a lot of traffic in this neighborhood. This is a great neighborhood and there's a lot going on on the streets nearby, but this street was generally less ac...

On Totten Street

03/11/2008 16:21:35 -08:00

Totten Street is a nice place to live if yu're thinking of moving to the city. This neighborhood is a great place to live if you're considering this part of the city. It's pretty, there are parks throughout the neighborhood. There aren't very many businesses, but this is simply a residential street....

Powell's Cove Boulevard, located near small but scenic Francis Lewis Park, is dilled with trees and a wonderful atmosphere.

This street is located in an interesting and diverse section of Brooklyn. I really like this neighborhood and the people living here. It's filled with interesting little shops and restaurants and is near the East River, where you can catch some nice views of the city at night. All in all, this is a...

A Decent Kosher Meal!

30/10/2008 08:21:26 -07:00

Finding decent Kosher fare is not such an easy feat as you would think in Manhattan. Although there is a plethora of Kosher establishments, when one wants to go out for a meal with a party that keeps Kosher, the options are rather limited. Recently, however, I came across this very cute, quite conte...

West 175th Street

25/10/2008 19:04:48 -07:00

This street is very convenient, and even has a yummy 24 hour Papaya Dog at the corner. There’s nothing like a hot dog at 4 o’clock in the morning to quench your hunger pains, I always say. The A train’s 175th street stop is here, and you’re not far from the George Washington Bridge and the GW Bus St...

West 173rd Street

25/10/2008 19:02:18 -07:00

West 173rd Street,is fairly lively and filled with activity, a wonderful place for a young couple or someone new to the city entirely. Living in Brooklyn definitely has its perks, and this neighborhood is really part of the reasoning behind it. It’s easily accessed by buses, though having a car here...

West 174th Street

25/10/2008 19:01:25 -07:00

I wasn’t very impressed with West 174th street. It was very dirty, there was a lot of car traffic, and the buildings were small and run down. I don’t think this would be a good street to begin your life on in NYC.I think that the neighborhood is however very convenient if you're looking to commute d...

West 172nd Street

25/10/2008 19:00:36 -07:00

This street is really just a thoroughfare and there isn’t much to offer in the way of food or things to do. Perhaps you’d just enjoy the quiet simplicity, though I think this is a little too far for commuting to work each day. though it is close to the A at 175th and the 1 at 181st, if you’d like t...

West 171st Street

25/10/2008 18:59:49 -07:00

This is a purely residential street with nothing much to offer. The buildings are kept up nicely, but seem fully occupied as there were notices of any vacancies. All in all, it was kind of a black street, though it is close to the A at 175th and the 1 at 181st, if you’d like to take a visit. I think...

West 170th Street

25/10/2008 18:59:34 -07:00

This street houses the Columbia Medical Student dorms and much of the adjacent housing is rented by students. For that reason, and “mommy and daddy’s purse strings,” rent is significantly higher for what I think are sad apartments. The good thing is that this block has no walk ups and is close to th...

West 169th Street

25/10/2008 18:59:16 -07:00

This street is very easily accessible with the 1 and A Express train on 168th that will take you all the way to Brooklyn. I liked this street and think it’s one of the prettiest in Washington Heights, and its building offer huge apartments raining from 2000-3000 month. Similar to other streets in th...

West 168th Street

25/10/2008 18:58:56 -07:00

This street holds the Hospital, a massive expanse. The one good thing about hospitals (when you’re not sick) is the amount of food you can find nearby. There’s a great lunch truck that serves large ice coffees for a dollar, which is unbeatable. I liked this street, the calmness and the quietness. An...

West 167th Street

25/10/2008 18:58:20 -07:00

This street is well accessible as it is a block away from both the 1 and A trains at the 168th street stop. Other than that, there’s not much to write home about.Similar to other streets in this area, this is mainly residential. Typically, the restaurants and shopping runs on the Avenues, while the...

West 165th Street

25/10/2008 18:57:45 -07:00

As we draw nearer to Columbia, I think the housing changes to suit future scientists and doctors. Everything is cleaner and the prices decrease. The building are unkempt better and this is a good neighborhood in which to run, something you don’t see very often uptown. Similar to other streets in thi...

Like The Rest

25/10/2008 18:57:08 -07:00

Similar to other streets in this area, this is a mainly residential street. Typically, the restaurants and shopping runs on the Avenues, while the streets are reserved for housing and leisure. I enjoyed this block and thought it was pretty, though I’m not sure it would be all that desirable for a lo...

Near Columbia Med School

25/10/2008 18:52:33 -07:00

As you come nearer to the Columbia Medical School area, the flavor of Washington Heights in somewhat diluted, as the streets seem cleaner and quieter and the people much younger and diverse. I enjoyed this block, thought it had some good housing options, and could definitely see myself spending a go...

A Nicer Street in the Heights

25/10/2008 18:52:08 -07:00

Roger Morris Park is a highlight on this tree lined street in Washington Heights. You won't find much in terms of food or fun, but you will find some nice buildings with scenic views. Another street that reminds me of the wonders of summer in the city, West 160th is one of the nicer streets in the H...

West 159th Street

25/10/2008 18:51:50 -07:00

Some food and restaurants line this street, you should definitely try a few. In this area the majority of interesting things are on Broadway and Ft. Washington and not on the streets, which is where the housing lies. You'll also need to buff on your Spanish because it is an absolute must in this nei...

West 158th Street

25/10/2008 18:51:30 -07:00

This whole block seems like the same thing after the other. The residences aren't all that impressive and things became more rundown as the blocks ascend, leading me to believe that cheaper housing isn't always the best option, if that's what you're looking for

West 157th Street

25/10/2008 18:51:17 -07:00

I didn't like this street very much. It was unattractive, the people were rude, and it was very smelly.

On Pinehurst Avenue

25/10/2008 18:45:09 -07:00

There are a lot of small businesses, churches, and restaurants, this street has constant traffic, but perhaps not constant fun.

While there are plenty of business, churches, and restaurants, this street has constant traffic, there isn’t constant fun.

Overlooking the Terrace

25/10/2008 18:43:35 -07:00

Overlook Terrace is a quaint street in this nice section of Washington Heights. IThis section of the city is extremely quaint, and a nice oasis from the busy downtown area. Living uptown is not only comfortable, but also extremely nice . I really enjoy the calmness and the serenity of uptown life a...

On Wadsworth Avenue

25/10/2008 18:42:32 -07:00

Wadsworth Avenue is one of my favorite places in Washington Heights. I really like this area because of its accessibility but also because of its simplicity. Manhattan is a bit pretentious and Was Heights is much more down to Earth, with more families and older people. All in all, a wonderful place...

West 146th Street

25/10/2008 18:41:22 -07:00

This street is a little more scenic than its neighboring streets providing its residents with nice views of the park from the towering buildings. This area is pretty hilly and the buildings are huge, lending themselves to the possibility of some nice housing options in the future. The block is prett...

West 153rd Street

25/10/2008 18:37:26 -07:00

This is not a great street, nothing is going on, and the buildings seemed very dirty and unkempt. I don't understand why there aren't rules for supers in the city, but some of these places seemed like rat traps and I wouldn't live in one of them if my life depended on it. There's nothing too interes...

West 152nd Street

25/10/2008 18:36:53 -07:00

West 152nd Street is extremely convenient. Though in thos neighborhood, many people do have cars, which is more convenient if you have a family. But if you’re single, there’s no reason you can’t go green! This is a nice neighborhood with stores and restaraunts, and seems like a wonderful place to li...

Sometimes I Wonder....

25/10/2008 18:34:54 -07:00

Sometimes, I wonder if it's fair to place so much emphasis on what a place looks like to make it seem alright to live there. This street surprised me in that the buildings looked terrible but the insides were clean and well maintained, something that seems few and far between on this side of town. L...

West 149th Street

25/10/2008 18:34:36 -07:00

This street is not bad, it's very dirty, and there are a lot of people out. Fortunately, it is very near the 3 train at 149th Street, and isn't too long of a walk to better streets in the area. I think this would be a good place for someone looking to save a dollar on their rent, but the hike back u...

West 150th Street

25/10/2008 18:34:14 -07:00

Perhaps not the most interesting place in the world, West 150th Street (I believe) is the official beginning to Manhattan's northernmost neighborhood, Washington Heights/ Inwood. A nice welcome it is. The buildings are pretty nice and the people who reside in this neighborhood seem to be very econom...

West 151st Street

25/10/2008 18:33:31 -07:00

West 151st Street is filled with various small businesses and shops and parks. I really enjoy this area of Brooklyn near the East River. It was very easily accessible to the midtown and was very walkable and convenient. The entire neighborhood would lend itself perfectly to a family or young couple....

West 143rd Street

25/10/2008 18:28:34 -07:00

Perhaps not the most eventful street in the Heights, but a pretty one nonetheless. I think this is a great block to look for a place to live, but doesn't offer much in the way of anything touristy. To be honest, this side of town is really for its residents, and that is shown through the convenience...

West 144th Street

25/10/2008 18:28:20 -07:00

Another residential block in Morningside Heights. This street lacks the grandeur of some of the other busier streets, but nonetheless offers some nice housing options for those of you trying to save some cash. There are all kinds of little shops and stores to buy household goods for extremely cheap,...

Its cleanliness and nice people were definitely a hallmark of the neighbor...

Not that great

25/10/2008 18:25:02 -07:00

You won't find much on this street in the way of food, but there are some good housing options and its proximity to the train station will more than compensate for this streets lack of pizazz. I think the buildings here are pretty, and the bigger the building, the bigger the apartment. Uptown apartm...

West 141st Street

25/10/2008 18:24:48 -07:00

West 141st Street is a simple street in Harlem. I like this area a lot and think that it very easily accessible and good place to live if you’re thinking about moving to Harlem from anywhere in the country.

West 140th Street

25/10/2008 18:23:45 -07:00

In the heart of Morningside Heights, you'll find West 140th street, nearby City College and a nice park. This neighborhood is a lot different from the nicer blocks you'll find in Harlem, with much less pizazz. I find that this street is kind of lackluster, and don't think it's worth it if you're jus...

West 139th Street

25/10/2008 18:23:25 -07:00

West 139th Street is filled with various businesses and small shops in this fluid and exciting neighborhood in Brooklyn. I really liked the look and feel of the area and also the friendly people. I think that this is a good place to live if you’re looking to move to Brooklyn, as this street is very...

Fast Food Hell

25/10/2008 18:22:18 -07:00

The one thing I hate about getting higher in Manhattan is the lack of good and wholesome food options. You'll find every fast food restaurant known to man on or near this street. The prices are also higher than they are downtown, which is sad, because this is a lower income section of town. In terms...

West 136th Street

25/10/2008 18:22:06 -07:00

Morningside Heights is an interesting and dynamic part of the city. There are plenty of low priced housing options, but residential areas are now the status quo. You can access this are easily by buses or by the following metros: 135th Street A and 1 trains.

There's really not much to call home about in terms of this street. There's a bodega (small convenience store) on the corner, and it's near City College. I think it lacks the residential prestige of the Columbia neighborhood but still provides you with some nice housing options. Overall, it's alrigh...

In the heart of Spanish Harlem, this street is bustling with life and the real city vibe. Each corner has a bodega (convenience store) where a hot deli-style sandwich or a cold beverage is ready. This block is not a touristy area of the city, though the Upper East Side encroachment seems inevitable...

West 115th Street

Now things are getting more interesting. I think that as you begin to move from the Columbia dominated section of Harlem into the more authentic part, you really get the true essence, and the reasoning behind it's being a staple in the American psyche. This is a great neighborhood for shopping and e...

This is a great area, filled with stores, hair salons, brownstones, and real Harlem culture.

Columbia University is in Harlem?

25/10/2008 18:06:14 -07:00

Though beautiful, this street is overrun by nearby Columbia University infringing upon the characteristic Harlem it infringes upon. It is a sad tribute of the gentrification taking place in some historic neighborhoods in New York City, and has seen many protests from locals. A banner on a near-by bu...

West 113th Street

25/10/2008 18:05:39 -07:00

I highly enjoyed this street. I think it was filled with great housing, people and food. Though there's nothing better than a nice quiet street, this one was filled with activity and people, which was a nice shift from the more low key streets in the neighborhood.

West 112th Street

This area is a bit run down and is definitely not a place I would recommend for living options.The nearby streets capture most of what’s going on in this neighborhood, as this street is mainly residential and is not all that exciting.

Great Shopping, but Many Crowds!

24/10/2008 13:26:42 -07:00

The best time to walk through Canal Street if your goal is to actually just walk through it is at 6am, before all of the stores open. Once the merchants open up to their masses, the streets are teeming with people trying to score a bargain bag or perfume. This street is fantastic for finding great s...

Nice, Cute, and Convenient

11/10/2008 07:59:22 -07:00

I have heard many people say that outside of Manhattan, the borroughs all look essentially the same: a main street an then blocks upon blocks of strangely named residential streets. If this is the case, then Fresh Pond Road is a nice example of a convenient street in Queens. Branching off form the a...

The best thing to do here is leave!

11/10/2008 07:52:56 -07:00

You would think that this street's proximity to the W96th street subways would make it a more lively place to be, but it is not really somewhere you would want to do more than pass by. The street itself is mostly residential, and it does not offer so much as any sort of entertaining fare. Furthermor...

The Transportation Hub

26/09/2008 17:06:31 -07:00

What more can be said about West 34th street besides the fact that you can probably go anywhere in the US from here. Surely, the main attraction on this street is Madison Sq. Garden and Penn station which act as a double threat of crowds, noise, and of course access to anywhere. West 34th street is...

West 73d street in Jackson Heights is probably one of the most pleasant blocks to walk around in on the Upper West Side. stretching from the area near Fairway and all the way to the park, it is just a delight to hang around in. One of its true spots of delight is a tiny tea house known as Alice's T...

East 74th street can easily fit into the typical niche description of the Upper East Side. It is mostly a residential street peppered with sparse restaurants and services.

Close to Trains

18/09/2008 04:40:10 -07:00

W 30th street is not too different from the other streets in the 30s, meaning that it is noisy, dirty, and a bit dodgy to walk around on at night. At its intersection with 8th ave, 30th street feels the glow from Madison Sq. Garden and Penn Station, which means that it is more or less always crowded...

This section of Brooklyn wasn’t the prettiest in the neighborhood, nor was the it most dynamic.
