As NYC hits peak fall foliage, see listings with front-row views of Central Park

Tuesday, Nov 14, 2023 By CityRealty Staff, CityRealty contributor

During this summer’s air quality emergency and rainy weekends throughout September and October, some wondered how this would affect fall foliage. After all, some meteorologists have pointed out that unusual weather patterns like these could lead to an off-kilter season and less intense leaf colors. But according to the I LOVE NY Fall Foliage Report, November 2023 began with autumn’s peak colors reaching New York City.

Some have already made journeys upstate or to New England to look at the trees’ changing colors, but there is still time to make the most of it here in the city. These listings on the Upper East Side and Upper West Side enjoy direct views of the trees and leaves of New York's backyard, also known as Central Park.
