Neighborhood

Packed into two blocks from 6th Ave. to 8th, Central Park South is a neighborhood that plays host and neighbor to some of New York’s most iconic residences and businesses.

Proximity to Central Park is a big draw for residents. A lot of apartments for rent in this area are afforded views of the massive Manhattan green space, a rare sight among the bustling streets of the city. Central Park South is also a corridor to the retail mecca that is 5th Ave. and stores like Bergdorf Goodman, the Shops at Columbus Circle, and more.

Plenty of theatres and late-night talk show studios call the Central Park South section of Broadway home, making for an energetic nightlife scene aside from the selection of restaurants that are on offer. Bar Masa, Le Bernardin, and Per Se all offer some of the most exclusive dining in the city.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
