Since it’s World Turtle Day, it is the perfect t Since it’s World Turtle Day, it is the perfect time to shell-ebrate the unique name and history of our neighborhood which is located in East Midtown, Manhattan. 

The neighborhood is named for a small crescent-shaped cove, called Turtle Bay, that dates back to the 1700s and once ran from today’s 45th Street to approximately 48th Street. A meandering stream, called Turtle Creek, flowed southeasterly, emptying into the bay at the foot of what is now 47th Street.

Interested in finding out more about the history of this unique neighborhood? Head over to the Turtle Bay Association website via link in bio.
