Upper West Side

Written By Ariel Mitnick

The Upper West Side is a down-to-earth, family-friendly area of Manhattan. It’s also home to important city landmarks like Lincoln Center, The Natural History Museum, The Beacon Theater, Central Park (shared with the Upper East Side), Columbus Circle, Columbia University, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and Riverside Park. I personally think it’s an underrated food destination!
