Pleasant Avenue is a north-south street in the East Harlem neighborhood of the New York City borough of Manhattan. It begins at E. 114th Street and ends at E. 120th Street. The street was the northernmost section of Avenue A, which stretched from Alphabet City northward, and was added to the grid wherever space allowed between First Avenue and the East River. This stretch was renamed "Pleasant Avenue" in 1879. Unlike York Avenue, however, the addresses on Pleasant Avenue are not continuous with that on Avenue A (which would be in the 2000-series if they were continuous).

Empieza en la intersección con la calle 114 este y termina en la intersección con la calle 120 este. La calle fue la sección más al norte de la Avenida A, que se extendía desde Alphabet City hacia el norte y fue añadida a la grilla de calles en las partes donde hubiera espacio para añadirla entre la Primera Avenida y el río Este. Esta sección fue llamada "Pleasant Avenue" en 1879.​​ A diferencia de , sin embargo, la numeración de los edificios en Pleasant Avenue no sigue la secuencia de la Avenida A (que a esas alturas ya estaría por los números 2000 si fuera continua). Pleasant Avenue es una de las últimas calles remanentes del Harlem italiano, que existió en la parte oriental de Harlem desde fines de 1890 hasta 1970s. El vecindario se redujo con el paso de los años y la poca población italiana que queda residen principalmente en Pleasant Avenue. La calle es lugar de uno de los pocos restaurantes italianos que quedan en el área, Rao's, en la calle 114th Street.

Unlike York Avenue, however, the addresses on Pleasant Avenue are not continuous with that on Avenue A (which would be in the 2000-series if they were continuous). Pleasant Avenue is one of the last remaining streets in Italian Harlem, which existed in the eastern part of Harlem from the late 1890s to the 1970s. The neighborhood shrunk over the years, and the small remaining Italian population resides on Pleasant Avenue. The street is the site of one of the few remaining Italian restaurants in the area, Rao's, at 114th Street. The street had largely lost its Italian character by 2010. Both in real life and in the movies, Pleasant Avenue has long been associated with the Mafia. The street was the headquarters of Anthony Salerno, head of the Genovese crime family, prior to his incarceration for racketeering in 1986. It was also the founding location and turf of the Italian-American drug trafficking and murder-for-hire gang known as East Harlem Purple Gang during the 1970s and early 1980s. The Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics, formerly Benjamin Franklin High School, is located on Pleasant Avenue. In July 2010, Pleasant Avenue became the site of a Target store, at the East River Plaza at 517 East 117th Street. Every year on the second Sunday of August the Giglio Society of East Harlem performs the dancing Giglio on Pleasant Avenue. The dancing of the Giglio is an Italian tradition which began over 100 years ago. (en)
