The Upper East Side of Manhattan is the choice residential address for the rich in New York City since the turn of the 20th century. Many of the early mansions located here have today been converted into museums and art galleries although the wealthy still live in many of the apartments here.

Museum Mile, a stretch of 5th Avenue with the highest concentration of museums and art galleries, is also located within Upper East Side. A whole day may not be enough to visit every museum in this neighborhood.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
