Be immersed in the nostalgia of “Doctors’ Row”, also known as West 122nd Street, Mount Morris Park West, and Malcolm X Boulevard. These streets offer rare and substantially unaltered 19th-century streetscapes, a sight that can only be found in this particular area of Manhattan.

About New York City
New York City packs skyscrapers, famous museums, Broadway theatres and dozens of distinct neighbourhoods into five boroughs that hum day and night.
Manhattan is the classic first stop. Times Square glows above the theatre district, Central Park stretches for blocks between the Upper East and Upper West Sides, and the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building and Rockefeller Center define the midtown skyline. Downtown, the 9/11 Memorial, Wall Street and the Brooklyn Bridge sit close together, and boats run out past the Statue of Liberty to Ellis Island.
