  • ​​Upper East Side:
  • A neighborhood in New Your City Borough of Manhattan located between Central Park at Fifth Avenue, 59th Street, the East River, and 96th Street. The area is made up of several neighborhoods, such as Lenox Hill, Carnegie Hill, and Yorkville.  
  • The Upper East Side is also called the Silk Stocking District. Thomas Jefferson expressed an opinion in 1812: “I trust... the Gores and Pickerings will find their levees crowded with silk stocking gentry, but no yeomanry.” Till around 1900 “silk-stocking man or just the noun silk stocking, was used in New York for a man of expensive tastes. Although silk-stocking originally referred to the hosiery of men, the term early in the 20th century instead referred to the affluence of women who wore fine silk stocking instead of the more mundane cotton ones that did not rustle. The term today is used mostly as slang for wealthy neighborhoods- the most famous one being the Silk-stocking District of the Upper East Side of Manhattan.
  • Before the Park Avenue Tunnel was finished in 1910, the fashionable wealthy New Yorker began to build stylish mansions and townhouses on the large lots along Fifth Avenue, boarding Central Park. However, in 1916 the first apartment house replaced a mansion on the Avenue.

  • The Upper East Side Historic District is one of New York City’s largest neighborhood districts it runs from 59th to 78th street along Fifth Avenue, and up to 3rd Avenue. After the Civil War, the once struggling run down district transitioned into a thriving middle class residential area, then in the beginning of the 20th century, the neighborhood transformed into a neighborhood of mansions and townhouses. Nowadays a lot of these single-family homes were replaced by opulent apartment buildings.
  • Many of the famous Museums in the Upper East Side run along Fifth Avenue fronting Central Park generating the moniker “Museum Mile”. Running between 82th and 105th streets are Metropolitan Museum of Art, Henry Clay Frick House, Asia Society Whitney Museum of American Art, Irish Georgian Society and many others.
  • Many Diplomatic missions are located in former mansions on the Upper East Side, such as Austria, France, Greece, Italy and many others.
  • This neighborhood has long been home to the powerful, wealthy and influential and will likely continue as such for a long time.
