The Yorkville neighborhood on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, snarled until recently by Second Avenue subway construction, is on the rebound.
One of Manhattan’s more inconspicuous neighborhoods despite its size — it sprawls between 79th and 96th Streets from Third Avenue to the East River — Yorkville has myriad types of housing, including high-rise rental complexes, co-op towers, new condominiums, townhouses and apartments in former tenements.
Its roughly 78,000 residents are a hugely diverse group. These days the area is drawing large numbers of young people, including young families, as well as retirees seeking more value for their dollar, according to real estate agents in the area.
