Coupled by historic brownstones and urban developments, Murray Hill is an excellent example of where old New York charm meets innovation. Locals in the area enjoy close proximity to Grand Central Station, perfect for those commuting to jobs in Midtown Manhattan. Recognized for its quiet days and thriving nightlife, Murray Hill has become a popular destination for college students.
Because of its active nightlife scene, off-the-clock employees and students choose bars like Joshua Tree on 3rd Avenue for weekday happy hours. Murray Hill houses many global businesses and over a dozen United Nations embassies. Locals find comfort and relaxation in jogging on the East River trail, a block from Saint Vartan Park.
