80th St Between 2nd Ave and 1st Ave

Staunchly residential and fittingly quiet, this part of 80th Street is a stereotypical Upper East Side block. With only a handful of neighborhood amenities surrounding the apartments, there isn't much to lure you down this way.

The western end of the street is more humble and quiet while the eastern end is home to more large apartment high-rises and condos. Seeing as this is further from the Subway, I was a bit perplexed by this. Usually the closer to the transportation you are, the better the housing. Oh well, shows what I know.
