Turtle Bay
Overview of Turtle Bay
Turtle Bay is a diplomatic and residential enclave on the East Side, stretching from 43rd to 53rd Streets east of Lexington Avenue.

Living in Turtle Bay, Manhattan is sophisticated and serene. The streets are lined with diplomatic missions, consulates, and elegant pre-war buildings. As a historic Manhattan NYC neighborhood, it attracts a mix of UN employees, longtime residents, and young professionals seeking value and proximity to Midtown offices.
Real Estate & Housing Market
The inventory of homes for sale in Turtle Bay is diverse. You can find everything from white-glove co-ops on Beekman Place to more affordable post-war condos and brownstones on the side streets. The presence of the UN creates a steady rental market for diplomats, making it attractive for investors.
Turtle Bay often offers better value than its neighbors to the north and south. Buyers can find spacious layouts and river views at price points that are competitive for prime Manhattan. The "Katharine Hepburn Garden" area adds a touch of historic celebrity allure.
