31. Ashton Park
Home to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Margaret Ashton Museum of Modern Art and the Park Gate Photography Annex of the MMA, Ashton Park is a terminally hip
neighborhood that’s always at the height of some artistic movement’s renaissance or another’s. Ashton Park is equally as renowned for its celebrity-owned condominiums as
its art collections, and a local joke chides celebrities for buying in-town homes here but never actually spending a night in the city. On the more sordid side, a designer
amphetamine has taken the neighborhood by storm, and many on the local A-list are rapidly developing addictions to this new, started-up version of speed.
