55th Street (Manhattan)

55th Street is a two-mile-long, one-way street traveling east to west across Midtown Manhattan.

The road crosses a pedestrian island separating 12th Avenue from the West Side Highway (one of the few places where 12th and the West Side Highway are not the same).

The route concludes at the West Side Highway (New York Route 9A).

Opposite the intersection is the Hudson River Park and Hudson River.
