Pros: There’s a cute vintage green elevator and my unit had laundry. High ceilings. Cons: Surprised the staircase never collapsed. Half of the tenants are people that have been there for decades and they DO NOT want you…

Midtown East

Midtown East around Grand Central Terminal is a commuter's paradise — the Chrysler Building gleams overhead, steakhouses and sushi spots serve the office crowd, and the 4/5/6/7/S trains converge underfoot. Residential options are limited but convenient.
