Marvelous Midtown Manhattan

Mention “midtown” to almost anyone and they’ll know exactly what you’re talking about – one of New York City’s most captivating areas.

The exact size of midtown Manhattan varies slightly based on who you talk to; broadly speaking it spans the entire island east to west, its northern border is 59th St. and it continues south for roughly 25 or so blocks.

There’s no question that Midtown Manhattan is one of the most vibrant hubs of… well, anything. It’s a burgeoning financial center, is home to some of the world’s most iconic skyscrapers, and includes most of the city’s best shopping, dining and entertainment.

Midtown Manhattan’s architecture alone is simply stunning. The Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, the United Nations headquarters, Times Square, Grand Central Station and more – they’re all here, and truly need to be seen in person. In fact, with the exception of Central Park and One World Trade Center, virtually all of Manhattan’s most iconic landmarks are in Midtown. Check out the legendary Park Ave., the bustling Madison Ave., Penn Station, Trump Tower, the Museum of Modern Art and so much more.

Want to shop? Fifth Avenue runs through Midtown Manhattan, offering the country’s best selection of boutique shops, department stores and much more. Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Tiffany & Co. – they all emerged in Midtown Manhattan.

Want to catch a show? Broadway (and off-Broadway) theater is a truly special New York City tradition and culture that offers a chance to see established stars and the hottest up-and-comers cut their teeth on the stage.

For drinks, dining and dancing, the choices in Midtown Manhattan are virtually limitless. Whether you’re looking for cocktail lounges, nightclubs, white-tablecloth eateries or secret mom-and-pop spots, the choices are staggering.
