The compass heading used in New York City are based on Central Park and the ascending cross street numbers for reference. Those blocks right of Central Park regard the East Side, while the left is the West Side. East and West references to Manhattan can also be based on which shore. The East Side is along the East River while the West sits along the Hudson in this understanding.
