Rose Hill is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan,[1] between the neighborhoods of Murray Hill to the north and Gramercy Park to the south,[2] Kips Bay to the east, the Flatiron District to the southwest, and NoMad to the northwest. The formerly unnamed area is sometimes considered to be a part of NoMad, because the name "Rose Hill" was chiefly used for the area in the 18th and 19th centuries, and is not very commonly used to refer to the area in the 2010s.[3]

The AIA Guide to New York City defines Rose Hill as the area bounded by 23rd Street to the south, 32nd Street to the north, Madison Avenue to the west, and Third Avenue to the east.[4] The president of the Rose Hill Neighborhood Association considers the eastern boundary to be the East River.[5] The Rose Hill neighborhood straddles Manhattan Community Districts 5 and 6.
