Welcome to TriBeCa
A syllabic abbreviation of Triangle Below Canal Street—TriBeCa is a chic neighborhood located in Downtown Manhattan, between Broadway to West Street, from east to west, and Canal Street to Chambers Street, from north to south, and its prominent loft-style architecture, upscale restaurants, shops and cafés, and thriving art galleries make this slice of the island a perfect destination for those looking to find some peace and quiet in the city.
Formerly an industrial area filled with warehouses and factories for produce, textiles, and dry goods, by the 1960s, TriBeCa’s industrial base had all but vanished. In the 1970s, as some of the warehouses were converted to residential use, and lofts began to be utilized by artists, who lived and worked in their spaces, TriBeCa transformed and emerged as a haven for New York’s artistic community.
With a primary focus on elegance and beauty, TriBeCa developed into a vibrant neighborhood where you will hardly encounter congested streets and crowds of people. The entirety of TriBeCa has a quaint, mellow vibe against the cast-iron architecture flair, always lush greeneries and outdoor space, and with stunning waterfront views of the Hudson River, as well as the Freedom Tower at the heart of this neighborhood. Residents also enjoy the neighborhood’s close proximity to other neighborhoods, such as SoHo, Chinatown, Greenwich Village, and the Financial District, making TriBeCa attractive to home-buyers.
Many celebrities such as Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Robert De Niro, George Clooney, Justin Timberlake, Meryl Streep, Mariah Carey, and J. Cole have called TriBeCa home.
