The financial capital of the world, Lower Manhattan is the nation’s third-largest business district and the fastest-growing residential community in New York City. The area is currently experiencing a resurgence of new office and residential buildings, hotels, and retail, as well as new and refurbished open spaces. With the redevelopment of the downtown neighborhoods well underway, residents, workers, and tourists already get to appreciate the area’s exceptional waterfront views, parks and playgrounds, fine dining and shopping, and convenient public transportation.
It’s no surprise that thousands of New Yorkers have decided to put down roots in Lower Manhattan and many, many more are joining them. As home to some of New York’s best restaurants and nightlife as well as practical amenities, there are plenty of reasons why Lower Manhattan is one of the city’s most livable communities.
