E 59th St is a street that runs east-west across Midtown Manhattan in New York City. It forms the southern boundary of Central Park between Fifth Avenue and Eighth Avenue (also known as Central Park West).
Sixth Avenue – also known as Avenue of the Americas, although this name is seldom used by New Yorkers – is a major thoroughfare in New York City’s borough of Manhattan, on which traffic runs northbound, or “uptown”. It is commercial for much of its length. Sixth Avenue begins four blocks below Canal Street, at Franklin Street in TriBeCa, where the northbound Church Street divides into Sixth Avenue to the left and the local continuation of Church Street to the right, which then ends at Canal Street.
Seventh Avenue – co-named Fashion Avenue in the Garment District and known as Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard north of Central Park – is a thoroughfare on the West Side of the borough of Manhattan in New York City. It is southbound below Central Park and a two-way street north of the park. Seventh Avenue originates in the West Village at Clarkson Street, where Varick Street becomes Seventh Avenue South (which becomes Seventh Avenue proper after passing West 11th Street).
The Petrossian is a fine dining restaurant located at 182 West 58th Street in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. It specializes in caviar and other delicacies from around the world, such as foie gras, smoked salmon, truffles, and champagne. The restaurant was founded in 1984 by Armen Petrossian, whose family has been involved in the caviar trade since 1920.
Carnegie Hall is a concert venue in Midtown Manhattan in New York City. It is located at 881 Seventh Avenue, occupying the east side of Seventh Avenue between West 56th Street and West 57th Street, two blocks south of Central Park. The hall was built by philanthropist Andrew Carnegie in 1891 and designed by architect William Burnet Tuthill. It is one of the most prestigious and famous venues for classical music and popular music in the United States and the world.

It is located at the junction of Broadway and Seventh Avenue and stretches from West 42nd Street to West 47th Street.
