TriBeCa, (aka "Triangle Below Canal). Is located from Church street west to Hudson street, and from Canal, south to Chambers.

The TriBeCa area became popular and largely residential in some part due to a trend to nightlife in Manhattan moving south. It's interesting and moderate priced residential options drew people here. In recent years, this location has seemed to follow in SoHo's footsteps. Now Tribeca is considered to be one of New York City's "hottest" neighborhoods, and provides young urban families both a trendy and upscale lifestyle. Many of the city's newest galleries and most popular restaurants can be found here. As well as some of New York City's finest school districts.

Downtown Manhattan real estate is going through a major transition. Commercial buildings all around the Wall Street area are being transformed into contemporary, well-appointed hi rise residences. Proximity to Battery Park, Chinatown, or the South Street Seaport also adds to the neighborhood's appeal. As well as famous Manhattan landmarks such as Trinity Church Graveyard, The Stock Exchange, City Hall, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, and of course, the former World Trade Center Site, which is now undergoing an optimistic rebuilding phase.

Residents are comprised of Wall Street businessman and women, as well as new families looking for a "getaway" near the water. Couples as well, have found a haven in their Hi Rise lofts, where size and view remain priority over central location. The area offers a complete range activities appealing to many lifestyles i.e., New York City's most impressive fitness facility the Reebok supergym at the Chelsea Piers, as well as indoor tennis courts, racquetball, golf facilities, and for the purists, jogging, biking, rollerblading or strolling along the boardwalk of the West Hudson.

The Financial District, located a the lower tip of Manhattan, where the Hudson and East rivers meet, is New York City's architectural and historical melting pot. The old colonial churches and early American monuments, dating from the time when New York City was America's capitol, stand in the shadows of modern skyscrapers of polished steel and glass. Business and finance combined to mold the shape and character of Lower Manhattan which is home to Wall Street, the Federal Reserve Bank, and the New York Stock Exchange.

Battery Park is one of Manhattans newest neighborhoods. By combining residential apartments, and commercial office space, by 1976, the 92-acre landfill was completed and Battery Park City was born. There are no walk-ups, brownstones or tenements buildings in Battery Park. All apartments are located within modern luxury hi-rises that mimic their commercial factory neighbors.
