Midtown Manhattan can mean:
- Midtown Manhattan central business district.
- Midtown Manhattan section from 59th to 14th St.
When New Yorkers say we are going to “Midtown,” we usually mean the central business district of skyscrapers below Central Park.
It is the home of iconic New York businesses, cultural institutions, and consulates.
Times Square, Rockefeller Center, and the Diamond District are sub-neighborhoods.
Thank you for sponsoring Latin culture in Midtown!
