Known for its historic 'Sniffen Court' and a mix of mid-century high-rises and 19th-century townhouses, it is a popular choice for professionals seeking proximity to Grand Central and Midtown. The neighborhood is particularly well-regarded for offering a wide range of price points, from entry-level studio cooperatives to expansive luxury penthouses.
