The Continental New York

No matter where you wander through Midtown—between the theaters and the towers—The Continental New York shows up on almost every block. Built in the 1920s, this tourist attraction anchors the stretch between 50th and 49th Streets on a few short blocks of Sixth Avenue, home to PX4R+4P New York, NY 10005. Beyond its architectural presence, visitors use the site as a point of reference for everything from organized walking tours to quick photo stops in a fast-moving corridor.

Call ahead if you need specific visitor details: 212-307-5500. You’ll find the quickest route plotted on the Google Maps listing, which lays out sidewalks, subways, and single-occupancy vehicle guidance all the way to the crosswalk. The attraction remains just one landmark among many, but its century-old façade still shows up on skyline postcards and tour-group itineraries alike. https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c25b0035a44ab3:0x8d7df08f762970d
