Guide to Upper East Side, New York

Home to some of the most exclusive residences in New York, sandwiched between Central Park and the East River, Manhattan’s Upper East Side is as up-market as it gets.

Upper Fifth Avenue – nicknamed “Museum Mile” – has the city’s greatest concentration of art. It includes the Frick Collection and the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Guggenheim Museum.

One block to the east you will find Madison Avenue, the swankiest shopping street in the city that also boasts the outstanding Whitney Museum.

Take a minute to enjoy the sweeping view south from Park Avenue, before you reach Lexington Avenue. This is where the legendary department store Bloomingdale’s, with its Art Deco façade and bustling atmosphere, is located.
