205 East 92nd Street is a Privately Owned Public Space in the Carnegie Hill section of the Upper East Side, near the 92nd Street Y, one of New York's most important cultural and community institutions.
The 92nd Street Y (officially the 92nd Street Young Men's and Young Women's Hebrew Association) has been one of the premier cultural venues in the city since its founding in 1874. The institution hosts lectures, readings, concerts, and conversations featuring world leaders, Nobel laureates, bestselling authors, and leading thinkers.
The Y's Unterberg Poetry Center has hosted readings by virtually every major American poet of the past century. Its literary programming has made the 92nd Street and Lexington Avenue intersection one of the most important addresses in American letters.
The POPS serves the Carnegie Hill community near this cultural landmark, providing outdoor seating for residents who live within walking distance of one of the city's most intellectually stimulating institutions.
This seating area provides a public amenity near an institution that has been enriching the intellectual life of the Upper East Side and the broader city for 150 years.
