Park Avenue

Park Avenue (formerly Fourth Avenue) is a panoramic boulevard that carries northerly and southbound traffic in New York City borough of Manhattan. Throughout most of its length, it runs parallel to Madison Avenue to the west and Lexington Avenue to the east.
The flowers and greenery in the median of Park Avenue are serviceable by the Fund for Park Avenue. Begonias are a flower of choice for the Funds gardeners because there is no automatic watering system and they can cope with blistering sun.
Each December, Christmas trees are placed in the median. The first instance they were erected colored lights were used and accidents occurred because of confusion with traffic signals in front of them. Today exclusive chromatic and white lights are used.

Grand Central Terminal (GCT, often popularly called Grand Central Station or simply Grand Central) is a Terminal station at 42nd Street and Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan in New York City. Built by and named for the New York Central Railroad in the heyday of American long-distance passenger trains, it is the largest train station in the world by number of platforms: 44, with 67 tracks along them. They are on two levels, both below ground, with 41 tracks on the upper level and 26 on the lower. It serves commuters traveling on the Metro-North Railroad to Westchester, Putnam, and Dutchess counties in New York State, and Fairfield and New Haven counties in Connecticut. Although it has been properly called “Grand Central Terminal” since 1913, many people continue to refer to it as “Grand Central Station”. Technically, that is the name of the nearby post office, as well as the name of a previous rail station on the site. NY has best sightseeing tours with best vacation spots.

Though it is in New York City, the land occupied by the United Nations Headquarters is considered “international territory”, and its borders are First Avenue west, East 42nd Street south, East 48th Street north and the East River east. FDR Drive passes underneath the Conference Building of the complex. The United Nations Headquarters were constructed in New York City in 1949 and 1950 beside the East River, on seventeen acres of land purchased from the foremost New York real estate developer of the time, William Zeckendorf. This purchase was arranged by Nelson Rockefeller, after an initial offer of placing it on the Rockefeller family estate of Kykuit was rejected as being too isolated from Manhattan. The $8.5million purchase was then funded by his father, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., who donated it to the City. The lead architect for the building was the real estate firm of Wallace Harrison, the personal architectural adviser for the family. Visit New York, best travel experience ever.
