POPS - Outdoor Seating

455 East 86th Street is a Privately Owned Public Space on the 86th Street commercial corridor in Yorkville, providing outdoor seating at a residential building between First and York Avenues.

86th Street at this eastern location is near the end of the commercial corridor, where the retail and dining establishments give way to the more residential and institutional blocks approaching the East River.

The Carl Schurz Park waterfront, accessible from the eastern end of 86th Street, provides one of the most pleasant sections of the East River Esplanade with views of Hell Gate and the Triborough Bridge.

The POPS serves Yorkville residents near the quieter eastern end of the neighborhood's busiest street, where the commercial energy of 86th Street transitions to the waterfront calm of the river.

This seating area provides outdoor space at the residential end of the Upper East Side's most important commercial corridor.
