89th St Between Madison Ave and Park Ave

A suspiciously quiet street, this stretch of 89th is practically devoid of any commercial property. Perhaps the only outstanding feature is the Church of St. Thomas More on the north side of the block.

Shady (in the the good way), and short (in the bad way), it's book-ended by the two avenues I tend to do the most complaining about. With buses to the west, and traffic to the east, you can almost feel trapped here.
