Central Park South


NEIBORHOOD DEFINITION

It runs from Columbus Circle at 8th Avenue to Grand Army Plaza at 5th Avenue.

 

ARCHITECTURAL STYLE

Central Park South is one of the most cosmopolitan areas in NYC. The notoriously expensive prewar co-ops and condos stand along the south edge of Central Park provides the most amazing view of the park.

 

LANMARK

The four famous upscale hotels including the Plaza Hotel, the Ritz-Carlton, the Park Lane, and JW Marriott Essex House attract tourists from all over the world. The horse drawn carriages resting outside of the park is also a famous scene here.

 

NEIGHBORHOOD

Central Park South is one of the most convenient areas in NYC. You can attend various cultural events at Lincoln Center, eat out at Columbus Circle, and shop at Time Warner Center. Other than the urban atmosphere from surrounding corporate headquarters and historic buildings, the clip-clop of horse drawn carriages passing by the neighborhood also offers an old New York experience
