Fans discuss the exact location of Jerry's apartment on the Upper West Side, confirming it's at 125 W. 81st Street, and compare it to the Mad About You apartment location in Greenwich Village.
I'm not exactly sure where Jerry's apartment is. I thought is was on West End Avenue, not CPW.
Speaking of locations, the diner they hang out at is Tom's dinner in the Upper West Side ("immortalized" in Suzanne Vega's song). The glass windows have diner logos on them (in the show); the real diner has none. Also, the fictional diner looks more appetizing.

Jerry's apartment is on 81 street (and West End Avenue, I believe).
Also, I believe the Mad About You Apartment is on or about 23 Street and Fifth Avenue.

More specifically, 125 W. 81st. This is in the FAQ.
Is 109th St still considered Upper West Side? The reason I ask is that Fran (and Mark) live(d) on the Upper West Side and she jogged 86 blocks to get to the Buchman's place in last week's ep.

Nope. The M_A_Y apartment is in Greenwich Village near Parson's School of Design. The shot of the building is from the northwest corner of 5th Ave and 10th or 11th Street (I'm not sure) looking southeast at their building. Several more blocks south (just below 8th Street), one would find Washington Square Park and the arch. Adding 86 blocks to 10 would place Fran's apartment at approximately 96th Street, certainly well within the borders of the upper west side.
BTW, if the M_A_Y camera crew HAD located itself on the northwest corner of 23rd Street and Fifth Ave, facing southeast, they would have been looking directly at the famous Flatiron building, an early wedge shaped Manhattan skyscraper sandwiched between Fifth Ave and Broadway, on the south side of 23rd Street.
Just in case you're interested.
