Exploring Manhattan’s Murray Hill

Alfred Pommer (Guides Association of New York),Joyce Pommer

Since this Manhattan neighborhood was named for the Murray family and their contributions to the American Revolution, many of New York’s most illustrious residents have made Murray Hill their home. The mansions of J.P. Morgan Jr. and William Waldorf Astor stood along its streets. Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt lived here as newlyweds, as did Admiral Farragut, Commodore Perry and Sinclair Lewis, along with Andy Warhol’s famous Factory. Not only homes but also many quintessential New York landmarks are located in this historic district–visit the original Tiffany & Company building, the Civic Club, the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and a once-famous B. Altman Department Store that is now New York’s Science, Industry and Business Library. Experience the striking architecture and discover the stories of Manhattan’s Murray Hill.
