A dozen trees and hundreds of plants have finally arrived as part of the East 86th Street Streetscape plan that the East 86th Street Association has worked long and hard for!

Our East 86th Street Volunteer Clean Team grew from three to ten volunteers in just our second week! 

Construction is in final phase! Trees, plants, shrubs, and tree guards will cap the project in November.

We are pleased to announce that District 5 Council Member Ben Kallos has secured funding to transition all 5th District corner trash receptacles from the old wire baskets to the new, larger cans housed in green metal cases. The new cans with domed top and smaller opening increases capacity, prevents spillage and deters rats.

The East 86th Street Association is pleased to announce the official launch of the all-new East86th.Org, as well as completely revamped social media on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Andrew Fine, of The East 86th Street Association, produced and edited the website with Developer William Mallick and Designer Ken Sommer of Inteligencia, Inc..

It was a long, hard winter for East 86th Street, but there is reason for optimism.

We now have a revamped Facebook page, and new Instagram and Twitter pages. Follow us using the links found on the top and bottom of the home page, Updates on new initiatives, meetings, and community news will be regularly updated. Please share, follow, and most importantly engage!

Tracking down the oldest bar on the Upper East Side is no easy task! State records are incomplete. Most of the oldest bars in NYC have no record of the original liquor license date

It is a neighborhood institution! Opened in 1932 and still operating at its original location on 86th and Third Avenue, Papaya King has withstood the test of time!

At the East 86th Street Association, we are always looking for new ways to improve the neighborhood. I this case, all we had to do was to look up, into the trees!
