Well, I couldn’t just do the West Village, could I? That wouldn’t be loyal. Plus there are just too many pretty townhouses all dressed up for Christmas on the UES to not do a post or two about it! I hope you enjoy seeing a glimpse of how uptown does the holidays:

East End Avenue – quiet and hidden away.

The Park Avenue trees.

The Marymount School on Fifth Avenue.

Marymount Manhattan College.

I love the Carolina Herrera holiday windows on Madison Avenue (fun fact: when I first moved to the city I actually saw her walking into her own store!).

Ralph Lauren on Fifth Avenue.

The Frick Collection.

I just noticed while editing this photo…is that an Elf on the Shelf down there?? Creative placement by those parents.

Check back tomorrow for Part II!
