About Midtown East
Midtown may very well be the heart and soul of New York, and its eastern half is home to what is most certainly one of the city's chief gateways: Grand Central Station. Stretching from around 42nd to 59th Street and from the banks of the East River to Fifth Avenue, Midtown East may not boast the star quality of the Theatre District or the nouveau hipness of Hell's Kitchen, but it does have much to offer, from great restaurants and hotels to key attractions like the headquarters of the United Nations. If it's shopping you want, look to Fifth Avenue, where the conviction has ever been, Money is made to be spent. The cost-is-no-worry attitude is a must for folks serious about hitting retail elites such as Tiffany, Bergdorf Goodman, and Saks Fifth Avenue. TRAIN: S, 5, 6, 7 to Grand Central-42nd St
