The private and artsy neighborhood of Tribeca, originally known as “Triangle Below Canal Street,” is home to luxurious apartments and townhouses, upscale shopping, and incredible fine dining opportunities. Tribeca sits along the Hudson River, providing residents with peaceful, waterfront views, scenic walks through the neighborhood, and quiet, tree-lined streets.

 

By the early 21st century, Tribeca became the place to be for artists and creatives, launching the Tribeca Film Festival and developing the art scene. Tribeca offers unique experiences along its historic city corridors and is one of the most pleasant “walkable” communities in Manhattan. It's hip and trendy atmosphere pairs well with its eclectic culinary scene, quirky art galleries, and welcoming neighbors.

Local Lifestyle

Residents of the Tribeca area enjoy a laid-back and casual atmosphere in a historic district. The architecture dates back to the 1600s and features intricate details across a variety of classic, gothic, and modern designs. The restored historic warehouses make Tribeca’s quiet streets feel like you’re living on a movie set, and residents can choose between high-rise, luxury apartment buildings with waterfront views or pre-war walk-ups for a more inexpensive alternative. For a peaceful break from Midtown and the noise of the city, living in Tribeca is a fantastic option for a more “suburban” feel within the city limits.

Enjoy a drink or take a class — all are welcome at the Brandy Library.
