MIDTOWN WEST. It's chic boutiques. It's grand dining. It's the conviction that "money spends. It's Fifth Avenue, and it's one of the world's most famous drags. Here, retail elites such as Tiffany, Bergdorf Goodman and Saks Fifth Avenue have warmly embraced well-heeled spenders, and Euro shops like Cartier welcome luxury item seekers. Even hip chain stores like Banana Republic and The Gap get to the act, forever changing the dynamic of this district by drawing folks who want more affordable options. Aside from the fabulous shopping, the street also offers great views of some of the city's finest churches, including St. Patrick's Cathedral, St. Thomas's Church, and Fifth Avenue Presbyterian. TRAIN: E, F, N, R, 7 to 5th Ave
