Welcome to the Upper West Side of Manhattan, a neighborhood that might feel familiar to you even if you've never visited. It's the New York City of Woody Allen and Nora Ephron movies, Seinfeld,and where the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade begins. Here, you practically expect everyone to make witty conversation and have floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. In truth, the area is tonier than its bookish reputation suggests. High real-estate prices have pushed out the mom-and-pop shops, and much of Broadway is occupied by chain stores. Old-timers complain that the neighborhood has lost some of its soul. Perhaps that's true, but it remains culturally and intellectually rich, thanks to Lincoln Center and Columbia University. And with Central and Riverside Parks close by, there's still a sense of living in a picture-perfect corner of Manhattan.

The Upper West Side stretches from 59th Street at the southernmost point to 110th Street, Central Park to the east and the Hudson River to the west. The northern boundary is debatable, sometimes includin orningside Heightsup to 125th Street. The area is served by the 1/2/3 subway lines beneath Broadway and the C and B trains on Central Park West. Going north and south is easy by subway, but going across town requires the M96, M86 or M72 buses.

Sandwiched between Riverside Park and Central Park, the Upper West Side is one of the leafiest neighborhoods in the city. A plethora of green spaces is part of what makes the area so attractive. Riverside Parkcovers 330 acres along the Hudson River, with soccer and baseball fields, tennis courts, dog runs and a bike path that runs the length of Manhattan. Summer ushers in extras such as free kayaking and outdoor movies. The even large entral Parkoffers rambling paths, birdwatching, endless picnic spaces and lots of special events. Dogs are allowed off-leash in much of the park before 9am and after 9pm. Families gravitate to the Upper West Side. Many streets in the neighborhood are quiet, and there's a sense of community. Besides enjoying the parks and playgrounds, families also appreciate indoor amenities like th useum of Natural History, the children's history museum at th ew-York Historical Society, th hildren's Museum of Manhattanand Lincoln Center, which offers a variety of family-friendly programs, including young people's concerts at th ew York Philharmonican opat Jazz at Lincoln Center.

For the culturati, Lincoln Center is the top reason to move to the Upper West Side. Its complex hosts th ew York Philharmonic, th etropolitan Opera, th merican Ballet Theater, th ew York City Balletan incoln Center Theater. Nearby is th uilliard School, with regular free recitals and concerts,Jazz at Lincoln Centerat Columbus Circle, and several independent movie theaters. Other neighborhood cultural institutions includ ymphony Space,Second Stage Theaterand th eacon Theater. Sometimes it feels like the entir ew York Timesarts section is devoted to this area. The Upper West Side is not really a dining destination, thoug ovetailan ean-Georgespull a great deal of weight. But it's an enviable place to shop for dinners at home, thanks to legendary grocers lik airwayan abar's, plus regulargreenmarkets. Pleasingly, specialty stores endure: for cookies, visi evain; for smoked fish, head t arney Greengrass; and for bagels, well, there are just too many joints to name. For a rowdy night out, it's better to head south t ell's Kitcheno helsea, or uptown t arlem. Things are decidedly G-rated here.

Upper West Side History

For much of its history, the Upper West Side could have been called 'the boonies.' What's now Broadway was a Native American trail that snaked through farms and villages. In the early-19th century, Harsenville sat around 72nd Street and Bloomingdale Village at 100th Street, with country estates dotted between them. In the mid-19th century, some of these estates turned into inns as the area became a popular getaway from the city, which was then far downtown. Construction of train lines and Central Park spurred development here, and soon hotels lined the park. The Museum of Natural History (Central Park West and 79th St) was built in 1877. Elegant apartment buildings and mansions sprung up along Riverside Drive, West End Avenue and Central Park West, luring people who worked in the arts, sports, media and manufacturing. From the Great Depression to the 1970s, residents of the Upper West Side were mostly working- and middle-class; more affluent folks moved to the suburbs. Urban redevelopment projects, including slum clearances and the creation of Lincoln Center in the late 1960s, led to the neighborhood's cultural renaissance in the 1970s and 1980s.
