"Fun, and Not too Crowded"
Ninth avenue is one of Manhattan’s long lost treasures. Running more or less at the edge of the city, it is one of the areas less frequented, especially in the winter. It is a few blocks away from any subway stops, and so people are contented with the closer alternatives. Besides stemming off at the Chelsea Meat Packing district, which is famous for its fancy restaurants and clubs, and the center of New York’s swanky night scene, 9th ave also holds some of ths city’s quainter, but just as attractive spots in its further uptown reaches. I like 9th avenue because it tends t be fairly quiet, even at night, so it’s a great area to stroll through. Early in the mornings, it is where the west side of the city truly wakes up, so while on a run, it’s great to see people gearing up for another day. I highly recommend spending some time here, it’s a place for nice memories.
