Neighborhood Profiles

Midtown

Midtown Manhattan is the city's primary commercial and transit hub, home to Grand Central Terminal, Rockefeller Center, Bryant Park, and the Empire State Building. The residential market features luxury condo towers, classic pre-war cooperatives, and postwar doorman buildings served by nearly every subway line in the system. Properties range from high-floor units with skyline panoramas to well-maintained co-ops along the tree-lined side streets east and west of Fifth Avenue.

South Jamaica

South Jamaica features brick rowhouses and new residential developments on tree-lined streets between the 100-acre Baisley Pond Park and Roy Wilkins Park. The Jamaica Center transit hub is one mile north, connecting the E, J, and Z subway lines, the LIRR, and the AirTrain to JFK Airport.
