Sutton Place is a peaceful, wholly residential East River enclave right in the heart of Manhattan, walkable to work in Midtown, the United Nations or the medical corridors just blocks north or south.

Close by are Whole Foods, Trader Joe's (coming soon), groceries and high-end butcher, fish, cheese and liquor stores, and excellent dining at many neighborhood favorites. Take in the sun in the peacefulness of the riverside Sutton Place Park half a block away, or take a bike ride or stroll along the expanding East River Esplanade, which also has dog parks.
