Murray Hill Neighborhood Guide
Quaker merchant Robert Murray called his mid-18th century estate "Belmont." New Yorkers just called it "Murray Hill." The townsfolk won. When developers arrived centuries later they found a provision injected into the old deed known as the "Murray Hill Restrictive Agreement" barring any commercial fouling of their cherished 25 acres. And so the neighborhood became filled with residences. Originally they were strictly upper crust, but by the end of the 1900s Murray Hill had become a magnet for recent graduates and young professionals climbing the corporate ladder. Recently those hard-charging renters have begun to stay in Murray Hill and put down roots, attracted by the convenient location, tree-lined streets and charming mix of elegant townhouses and modern residential towers.
Architecture and landmarks
Murray Hill was the stomping ground of legendary financier John Pierpont Morgan. He commissioned a library in the 200 block of Madison Avenue for his beloved books and manuscripts and Charles McKim delivered one of the city's most beautiful buildings to house the collection. The stones are so perfectly cut they required no mortar to fit together. Around the corner his son, J.P. Morgan Jr., built a magnificent Italianate townhouse. On Fifth Avenue are the homes of Tiffany & Company, B. Altman & Company and the world's most famous skyscraper, the Empire State Building. The Art Deco masterpiece has been declared one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World and is a fixture atop the annual list of America's Favorite Architecture. On a less grand scale, the Sniffen Court Historic District on East 36th Street is a charming grouping of ten Romanesque Revival stables from the mid-1800s that have been converted into fashionable residences.
Transport
The arrival of the Second Avenue subway has made public transportation more convenient in the neighborhood. On top of that, the 4, 5 and 6 subway lines that rumble under Park Avenue have stops in Murray Hill. The crosstown 7 line is at 42nd Street. Grand Central Terminal, about nine blocks to the north is a major subway hub. A platoon of buses is available and an express service operates on both First and Second avenues. The Queens-Midtown Tunnel that surfaces in the neighborhood provides easy access to Long Island City.
Schools
Students from PK to 5th grade attend P.S. 116, the Mary Lindley Murray School, on East 33rd Street, and P.S. 281, the River School, which opened its doors in 2013. Options for older students include the Murray Hill Academy and The Churchill School and Center in Kips Bay that is a private co-ed day school.
Health
Neighborhood residents can receive emergency attention at CityMD on 37th Street, a walk-in clinic with no appointment necessary. Another walk-in facility is available on Lexington Avenue at the Midtown New York Doctors Urgent Care. The Ambulatory Care Center branch of the NYU Langone Medical Center offers a full range of outpatient services for adults and children.
Safety
Murray Hill has long been known as one of the safest neighborhoods in New York City. It is under the oversight of the 17th Precinct, which reported 12.64 crimes per 1,000 residents in 2016.
Things to do
Murray Hill is well stocked with approachable bars and restaurants catering to the first-paycheck crowd. Irish pubs are well-represented around here, with staples such as Peter Dillon's Pub, Mulligan's and Muldoon's pubs open into the late hours for lovers of beer and no-frills grub.
The Jazz Standard, just south of Murray Hill, is one of New York's biggest jazz clubs and Mondays are always turned over to a celebration of Charles Mingus. Aspirational upscale shopping is available along Park Avenue. The Morgan Library and Museum serves up a steady stream of exhibitions, educational programs, films and concerts for visitors. So does the Scandinavia House on Park Avenue, although with a decidedly more Nordic bent.
