the only people who are gonna like that area are tourists.

SoHo, West Village, etc. are far more enjoyable for locals.

Which is why you lived there and then tried to say on here that NYC is dead at night, all based on you living in Midtown. Right?

Lots of real NYers & transplant NYers live in Midtown West and Midtown East. There is some bars & chill places to drink/eat in Hell's Kitchen, Turtle Bay, Murray Hill, etc to name a few. I use to live in Midtown East and it was awesome walking to work daily.

Spend a lot of time in Midtown East. Find it rather dead on weekends, but am in agreement. Seems to be a little community there. Some decent restaurants too. Nevertheless, could not see myself living there.

Ah, so you couldn't live elsewhere. Must have been a boring life for you in NYC.

I'd rather not take the filthy train packed with genetic trash everyday.

Midtown is the largest, most valuable, and most important business district on the planet.

Now whether or not someone personally "like it" is irrelevant. It's the most vital piece of real estate on earth.

I work in the old Times Annex. Midtown sucks, between the tourists, the tourist bus hustlers (they need to limit the number of those bozos on one corner), the beggars, the smokers (way more in midtown than Chelsea) and just the people in general. And that's without going into Times Square proper, which I recommend nobody do. It's vital, but so is the inlet of a slaughterhouse.
