Midtown may very well be the heart and soul of New York. Stretching from 34th to 59th Street and from the banks of the East River to those of the Hudson, Midtown boasts just about anything you can imagine – from the United Nations and Grand Central Station to Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center.
Fifth Avenue divides the area into eastern and western halves. This famous street needs no definition: its name brings to mind chic boutiques, grand dining, and the conviction that money is made to spend. This "cost-is-no-worry" attitude is practiced by wealthy clientele at retail elites such as Tiffany, Bergdorf Goodman, and clothing giant Saks Fifth Avenue. In addition, Midtown is home to one of the most influential theater districts in the world.
