407 Park Avenue South, NoMad, Manhattan, NY 10016

Covering the northern third of Madison Square Park up to 30th Street and stretching across the west and east sides from Sixth Avenue to Lexington, NoMad has undergone many changes in its time. But its iconic buildings, constructed in styles ranging from Beaux-Arts to Romanesque Revival to English Gothic Revival, still call back to history. Of course, Madison Square Park is an attractive green space that is an inextricable part of the area. Restoration efforts helped spur residential development and the arrival of high-fashion businesses and trendy nightlife, making today’s park the cornerstone of a bustling neighborhood. The NoMad area was once a stopping point for those entering or departing Manhattan, and it sits today on the fulcrum of many other neighborhoods. Chelsea, Flatiron, and Gramercy are right next door, and subway service on the N, Q, R, W, and 6 lines can get you anywhere you need to go.
