Some of Manhattan’s most iconic structures, from the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building to Grand Central Station and Rockefeller Center, are located in the busy, bustling Midtown East neighborhood. As a result, there are arguably more tourists than locals walking the streets – but that just adds to Midtown East’s endless appeal. As you’ll be living here and not just gazing at the architecture, you’ll be happy to know that not only is Midtown East home to some of the city’s largest employers, but there are also multiple subway stops throughout the neighborhood – as well as city bus service and the iconic yellow taxis.
Midtown East sits directly east of the Theater District and extends to the East River. It runs from 42nd Street north to E 59th Street, with the UN Headquarters in the southeast corner and the south corner of Central Park at the northwest corner.

I love the Metropolis!
I have lived here for almost a year and it is a great building. Not only are the amenities amazing but the staff are phenomenal. Super friendly and very on top of everything. Whenever we have an issue or need something, it is completed within 24 hours. Additionally, the apartments are beautiful and we have had 0 issues with bugs, sound, etc. I would totally recommend living here!
