93rd Street is a one-way street in the New York City borough of Manhattan. Like most of Uptown Manhattan east–west streets crossing Central Park, it is split in two segments. Its west segment traverses the Upper West Side and runs from Riverside Drive to Central Park West, while its east segment traverses the Upper East Side and runs from 5th Avenue to East End Avenue.
The portion of the street between Madison and Fifth Avenue is part of the Carnegie Hill Historic District.
A notable monument to Joan of Arc by Anna Hyatt Huntington stands at the street's western terminus at Riverside Park.




History


The block of 93rd on the Upper East Side was nearly empty until 1888, when some row houses on 57 and 61 East 93rd were built. Some small apartment buildings were then built in 1891 from 62 to 72 East 93rd Street. The Alamo, located at 55 East 93rd Street, was built in 1900.
