We’re just minutes away from everything the Big Apple has to offer – from fine wining and dining to shopping to theatre to night life.  Life in the world’s largest and busiest city is unlike any other.  Any BI resident can tell you that you could spend weeks to months to years in New York and still barely scratch the surface.

The divisions of Beth Israel span across Union Square, the Flat Iron District, Gramercy Park and Stuyvesant Square.  The Phillip’s Ambulatory Care Center is located in heart of Union Square – a cultural, business, educational and health care hub. This vibrant community is known as the Heart of “Off” Broadway and is celebrated for its top-notch restaurants, Union Square served as an important space for public mourning and protest after the WTC disaster.diverse retailers, excellent universities and hospitals, and one of the city’s most popular parks - Union Square Park, the staging ground for numerous historic rallies, demonstrations and gatherings; and host of the popular Greenmarket that brings fresh grown produce and baked goods to the city’s inhabitants four days a week. During the holiday season the southern end of the park becomes the Union Square Holiday Market. 

Beth Israel is surrounded by a variety of ethnic neighborhoods, including Chinatown, Little Italy, to the up and coming Alphabet City, to the more artsy concentrations of SoHo, TriBeCa, and East and West Villages.  It’s never a dull moment in the Big Apple!  Come and join us!!!
