Clinton

What was formerly a large industrial district in the 19th century, has now become one of Manhattans newest charms. Clinton, once referred to as Hell's kitchen, is located on the west side. Its boundaries are 59th Street to the North, 8th Avenue to the East, 42nd Street to the South and the Hudson River to the West. When most of the peep shows and adult video stores moved out over the last couple of decades many business' (most notably Disney and MTV) and new developers moved in to clean up and restore the area. Clinton is home to many young professionals as well as many lifetime residents, most who are all very active in local politics and their neighborhood community. Many of the buildings in this neighborhood tend to be four to six floors however; there are also several new state of the art luxury high rise buildings close to the river. Just like most of Manhattan, Clinton has its share of fine restaurants and also contains a lot of fresh food markets popular among residents and tourist alike.
