Location

The address is 40 West 40th Street, New York, NY 10018, United States.

Our data records the borough as Manhattan without a confirmed neighborhood, so we do not name one.

In a straight line it is about 0.3 miles from the Empire State Building, 0.3 miles from Grand Central, 0.4 miles from Times Square.

Those are straight-line distances between coordinates, not walking routes, so treat them as a way to compare properties rather than as a travel time.
