311 East 38th Street is a Privately Owned Public Space in the eastern Murray Hill neighborhood, providing outdoor seating at a residential building between First and Second Avenues.
Eastern Murray Hill near the Queens-Midtown Tunnel approach has a transitional character between the quieter residential blocks to the west and the tunnel infrastructure that dominates the eastern end of the upper 30s.
The neighborhood's apartment buildings house a diverse population that includes young professionals, medical workers from the nearby NYU Langone campus, and families seeking central Manhattan housing at prices below the Upper East Side premium.
First Avenue in this section serves as a commercial corridor with restaurants, pharmacies, and neighborhood services that cater to the area's residential population.
This seating area provides a modest outdoor amenity in the practical, working section of Murray Hill near the tunnel approach.
