Kips Bay

What was once a bay, Kips Bay is now a quiet and comfortable location on the East Side of Manhattan. Somewhat understated until recently, this neighborhood east of Third Avenue between 27th and 34th Streets, is becoming more and more popular with stylish young professionals. Some might say it's the lure of the fantastic ethnic restaurants along Lexington and Third Avenues (now dubbed Curry Hill) that has drawn new residents to the area. Others might say it's the enjoyable evening entertainment. The real draw, though, is its proximity to Midtown's business district and Downtown's nightlife. Both are only a walk or short ride away. Because of its smart locale, new boutiques and businesses have also moved in. Notably, Kips Bay is the center of Medicine in the city. It is home to the New York University School of Medicine and Dentistry, Bellevue Hospital, and the Chief Medical Examiners Office. As result, many doctors and hospital staff live here too. Most of Kip Bay's residents live in attractive apartment buildings, as many of the brownstones and townhouses are gone.
