New York Rentals – Murray Hill
Murray Hill is bordered by Gramercy on the south and 42nd Street on the north and Fifth Avenue and Second Avenue, but it feels like no place else in Manhattan. Younger and more energetic than its neighbors, Murray Hill is home to a hopping bar and restaurant scene on Third Avenue, as well as a host of shopping options, ranging from funky boutiques to big-name retail giants. It's easier to find a good time -- or at least a good burger and a beer -- in Murray Hill than anywhere else in the city north of 14th Street, but it's also surprisingly easy to find a classic Manhattan luxury rental apartment. Murray Hill's popularity among young professionals has led to an explosion of new-construction luxury rental apartment buildings, and a bumper crop of apartments for rent.
What makes Murray Hill stand out, relative to the rest of Manhattan real estate, is just how diverse its apartment stock is. Stately pre-war rental apartments to rival those of the Upper East Side can be found at 20 Park Avenue and 4 Park Avenue. Just blocks away, though, are such ultra-modern, amenity-packed new-construction rental buildings as The Anthem and The Montrose.
Murray Hill offers exceptional mass transit access, with the 4, 5, 6 train running down the neighborhood's spine and a host of dependable crosstown buses putting the rest of the city within reach. A scene unto itself, distinctly New York and simultaneously distinctly different, Murray Hill is one of the most desirable residential neighborhoods in Manhattan for a good reason.
