"Love this neighborhood!"

I have been here for a little over a year and I just love the atmosphere of this area in Midtown East. The beautiful townhouses and the superb tree lined streets make it a perfect oasis in the midst of the midtown lively vibe. All you need is at tour fingertips, from transportation to delicious restaurants and the quietness of parks all around you. Quite frankly, being neighbors to the UN is synonym of safety to me and those 2 weeks a year they get together for their GA have not been bad at all if you ask me! Maybe East 51st is a gem within a gem?
