96th Street (Manhattan)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

96th Street is a major two-way street in the Upper East Side and Upper West Side of the New York City borough of Manhattan, running from the East River at the FDR Drive to the Henry Hudson Parkway at the Hudson River.

On the East Side, 96th Street forms the traditional dividing line between Yorkville to the south and Spanish Harlem to the north.

The street is separated by Central Park. A street through the park, often called the 97th Street Transverse, connects the East Side and West Side via 96th and 97th Streets.

On the west side, the street is entirely within the boundaries of ZIP Code 10025; on the East Side it separates 10128 to the south and 10029 to the north.[1]

[edit] Transportation

It is served by subway by the 4 and 6 on Lexington Avenue at the 96th Street of the IRT Lexington Avenue Line, by the 1, 2 and 3 at Broadway at the 96th Street station on the IRT Broadway-Seventh Avenue Line, and by the A, B and C at the 96th Street of the IND Eighth Avenue Line on Central Park West. 96th Street is expected to be the planned northern terminus for the first phase of the long-awaited Second Avenue Subway.

The M96 bus line serves a majority of the street.
