Luggage Storage Upper East Side

The more cultured cousin of the Upper West Side is the Upper East Side in New York City. Bound by 96th Street, 59th Street, East River, and Central Park, it is an expansive and expensive place. If you’re here on personal or professional work and have some time to spare, go around the East end borough once. The Upper East Side is the jewel of Manhattan, and you’ll find numerous amazing places to visit and things to do when here. Prior to the settlement of the Europeans, the Upper East Side was a popular fishing spot for Native American tribes, fishing on the Hudson. When Dutch and English settlers made their way here in the 1700s, the borough transformed into farmland. By the mid-1800s, midtown Manhattan neighborhoods such as Lennox Hill and Yorkville were already developed here.

As immigration brought in fresh wealth from overseas, the Upper East Side was gentrified and began to take on a more polished appearance. The development of the region around Park Avenue, the construction of the subway station, and the building of premium schools and retail centers made land in the Upper East Side extremely expensive. Soon, over the next century, the borough became home to world-class museums, theaters, performance halls, and other notable public areas. Gracie Mansion – one of the few buildings to survive the centuries – was elected as the official residence of the Mayor of New York City. This further strengthened the Upper East Side’s position as the crown of NYC. Of course, it did help that the Rockefellers, Whitneys, Astors, Roosevelts, Dukes, and Kennedys all lived here at one point.
