can someone do a correction on this article? Fifth avenue does not extend into the Bronx, only 3rd avenue fully extends into the Bronx, madison, 145th and 155th are connected by bridges but they don't extend into the bronx. The only other continous Manhattan thoroughfare that extends into the bronx is Broadway.
and the east/west divide in the bronx is Jerome avenue
The new photo is cool. I love having as many photos as possible of places on Wikipedia. I think we should definitely keep it, but if someone can take one that isn't so dark, it might be even better. Thanks, though. Moncrief 23:08, May 12, 2005 (UTC)
It's clear that the west side begins at 5th avenue at 59th street (as stated in the article) and south of there. Is that also the case between 59th and 110th? i.e. if one is walking along the wall of Central Park? CoolGuy 17:39, 24 December 2005 (UTC)
The West Side north of 59th St. begins west of Central Park West (Eighth Ave. below 59th), and is referred to as the 'Upper' West Side, at least as far as 110th, sometimes up to 125th, past Columbia.
Fifth Avenue is rife with countless historical addresses, personages, and famous events. It seems a bit strange to single out this one scientist. The only way to balance it out would be to add all the other famous people associated with this street, which could be rather excessive. What's the official Wikipedia stance? (I'm never in favor of removing useful info, but articles should have a balance, right?)
35 South Fifth Avenue is listed as Tesla's address. Is there an explanation anywhere of what is called South Fifth street? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.52.142.47 ( talk) 15:37, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
Shouldn't there be a section describing some of the attractions on fifth avenue? sjgtl
"Joseph Winston Herbert Hopkins founded this street." Very dubious. -- Wetman 06:52, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
I've never, ever, ever heard 5th Avenue referred to as Fashion Avenue, colloquially or otherwise, in print or speech. If anyone has any sort of reference for this, please share it.
Why does Fifth Avenue redirect to Fifth Avenue (Manhattan)? If the Fifth Avenue in Manhattan is the primary meaning (evidenced by the fact that that title redirects here), then shouldn't this article just be at Fifth Avenue? 138.69.160.1 14:16, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Here is a picture I made, when I was in NYC in october. It was shot in front of the Metropolitan Museum and shows the east-side-facades of 5th Avenue... Dekoker 14:35 25. November 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.73.158.252 ( talk) 13:35, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
Why is a proposed bike ban from 1987 discussed as though it is an ongoing issue that hasn't yet been resolved? john k ( talk) 14:00, 15 October 2012 (UTC) Agreed there are bike lanes now in several ares of Fifth Ave-- 25person ( talk) 19:09, 19 October 2018 (UTC)
The "See also" section of this article mentions " Jerome Avenue a shopping street in the Bronx", but it does not mention how Jerome Avenue also divides east-west streets in the Bronx like Fifth Avenue does in Manhattan. This last part of the entry is important but apparently has been removed twice. I don't understand the reason for its deletion. Epicgenius( talk to me • see my contributions) 11:59, 5 June 2013 (UTC)
Fifth Avenue definitely did not become one-way in 1942 as stated in the article -- at least not permanently. I specifially remember Fifth Avenue being two-way as late as the mid-1960's. It's also clearly two-way in the opening scene of the film " Breakfast at Tiffany's," which was shot in 1961: Holly Golightly gets out of the right side of her taxi in front of Tiffany's -- so the taxi must have been heading uptown. There's an article here that says Fifth Avenue became one-way in January 1966, but I cannot confirm that independently.

– This place name is used in many cities all over the world, as demonstrated by the extensive list of alternatives on the disambiguation page. While the Manhattan street is well-known, even a partial set of page views show it doesn't satisfy the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC criteria of being "more likely than all the other topics combined—to be the topic sought when a reader searches for that term". Arranging the pages this way will also help identify any incomplete links to "Fifth Avenue" so that they can be sorted through and properly disambiguated. -- Netoholic @ 06:12, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
