Location is amazing! Building is in okay shape and definitely lacks some basic building amenities and style. Apartment is in nice shape and definitely does the trick. Appliances are brand new but stove is a little finicky.

About Upper East Side
The Upper East Side isn't all posh real estate, designer boutiques, and prep schools anymore. A younger, more affordable lifestyle is now mixed in with its New York sophistication. Lots of families settle down here, so the area is extremely safe and secure. While there is not a whole lot of hip nigh...

Not the hippest but very good Manhattan prices and amazing parks! Central Park and Carl Schurz.
I love the upper east side. My fiancée and I run in the evenings & there’s always other people running and walking dogs, etc., even at 10 or 11 pm, so it feels very safe! There’s an extensive array of dining and drinking options, especially on 2nd ave in the low 70s through mid 80s, including a robust bar scene. We’ve got a fairway and Whole Foods, as well as a couple of smaller groceries.
The UES is a great place to live, especially for couples who want to live in a one-bedroom without paying exorbitant rent prices. My apartment is within a few blocks of central park, three major grocery stores, two movie theaters, several museums, countless clothing and specialty shops, and numerous restaurants and bars. Anything you could ever want is within a short walk and, if needed, you can quickly jump on the 4/5/6 or Q within 5 minutes to venture into another part of the city.
LOVE it here, very residential, lots more sunlight and more bang for your buck with apartments. Bit removed from downtown/school, although made easier with the new Q train!
I love the UES. It’s a little quiet but with the Q it’s easy to get to and from campus. Nice restaurant and good value for money in terms of rent.
I have liked it a lot so far. Close to Central Park. A little quieter than places closer to school. But obviously a little far.
Lots to do. Lots of restaurants on 2nd ave that are worth going to. Some younger bars in that direction as well.
Very reasonable price for the area. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby. Only a ten minute walk from the train.
