Midtown South

[1] Midtown Manhattan hosts over 700,000 daily employees as a busy hub for workers, residents, and tourists.

The Empire State Building, the Flatiron Building, Pennsylvania Station, Madison Square Garden, the Macy's Herald Square flagship store, Koreatown, and NYU Langone Medical Center are all located in Midtown South.

[10] Midtown South encompasses several neighborhoods, including Chelsea, Hudson Yards and the Garment District on the West Side; Koreatown centrally; and Kips Bay, Murray Hill, and Rose Hill on the East Side.

It was established in 1983, formed as a civic caretaker to combat the many problems confronting residents in this highly commercialized area of Manhattan.

The community councilmembers gather at the New Yorker Hotel and address problems, along with the Midtown South Precinct representatives: usually the inspector, detectives, and members.
