AROUND TOWN: EAST END AVENUE
An Urban Oasis And So Much More
East End Avenue is the kind of street most New Yorkers might miss as they go to a favorite restaurant, shop, or club. You have to be looking for it. The neighborhood that it anchors, hugging the edge of the Upper East Side, traverses only 13 blocks or so with streets often ending in cul-de-sacs, giving the area an almost gated feel.
Adding to the appeal of this little pocket of Manhattan are the streets leading to Carl Schurz Park plus the front-seat view of the boat parade along the East River. So, now that we’ve tempted you, here are some excellent properties to call home. All are listed with Fox Residential Group. Visit them at: foxresidential.com
