17 August 1990, New York Times, pg. C22:
As the bus moved down Broadway, he pointed out the garment district, the toy district and the insurance district, but a block or two later there was nary a word about the new neighborhood of renovated lofts, restaurants, advertising agencies and publishers that has grown up just south of the Flatiron Building.
 
8 February 1998, New York Times, pg. 33:
It is showtime with a vengeance at the American International Toy Fair, the most prestigious trade show of the $20 billion toy industry, which open tomorrow.
 
For weeks, throughout the six-block toy district in Manhattan, an area bounded by 21st and 27th Streets, Madison Avenue and the Avenue of the Americas, workers have been toiling to prepare the industry’s annual carnival, stage set and high-stakes crap shoot, in which companies gamble millions on attracting buyers, retailers and securities analysts.

...to two floors of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, and 400 more manufacturers will show their wares to buyers in showrooms in the toy district (21st to 27th Streets, from the Avenue of the Americas to Park Avenue South).

The first Manhattan Toy Fair took place in 1902, but the centennial could not be celebrated last year because the show was canceled in 1945, thanks to wartime manufacturing priotieis.
 
For much of a century, Toy Fair provided the equivalent of opening night for major toy lines. Although the fair began in hotel suites, it found a home in the Toy Center, at 200 Fifth Avenue at 23rd Street, in the 1920’s and 1930’s.
