A Taste of India in Murray Hill
Gourmands flock to the two-block stretch of Lexington Avenue between 27th and 28th Streets, where an array of Indian restaurants attracts food enthusiasts. This small but mighty enclave, which first emerged in the 1970s with the opening of pioneers like Curry in a Hurry, packs a punch with nearly 20 establishments dishing out the subcontinent’s most tantalizing flavors. From the sizzling tandoori ovens at Bhatti Indian Grill to the fragrant biryanis at Chote Nawab, the sheer variety of regional specialties on offer is staggering. Craving the rich, ghee-laden curries of Punjab? Head to Dhaba for a decadent feast. In the mood for the fiery, coconut-infused stews of Kerala? Haldi has you covered. And, for those looking to stock their pantry with hard-to-find spices and exotic ingredients, a visit to Kalustyan’s is a must.
A Sense of History
For history buffs, Murray Hill offers a wealth of architectural treasures that speak to the neighborhood’s rich and varied past. The Murray Hill Historic District, which encompasses several blocks of stunning 19th century townhouses and mansions, is a particular highlight. Exploring its streets, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped back in time to the Gilded Age, when Murray Hill was home to some of the city’s wealthiest and most prominent families. Many of these grand residences have been meticulously preserved and restored, offering a glimpse into the opulent lifestyles of their former occupants. Among the most notable is the Morgan Library & Museum, housed in the former private library of financier J.P. Morgan. But the neighborhood’s architectural offerings aren’t limited to its stately homes. The iconic Chrysler Building, with its gleaming Art Deco spire and ornate metalwork, is a true icon of the New York skyline.
A Home in Murray Hill
Despite its adjacency to Midtown Manhattan, Murray Hill maintains a distinct neighborhood vibe that sets it apart from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding city. The area’s tree-lined streets and historic architecture lend it a charm and character that feels miles away from the skyscrapers and crowds of nearby Grand Central Terminal. With a thriving restaurant and bar scene, ample green space in the form of St. Vartan Park, it’s no wonder that more and more people are choosing to call Murray Hill home.
Murray Hill’s perfect blend of history, culture, and convenience makes it an unbeatable Manhattan neighborhood. At its heart lies Murray Park, a premier no-fee apartment building that offers an unrivaled residential experience steeped in Murray Hill’s singular charm.
