Financial District

The Financial District occupies the southern tip of Manhattan, where landmark office towers have been converted into spacious residential lofts alongside new luxury high-rise condominiums with river and harbor views. The Oculus and Fulton Center transit hubs connect over a dozen subway lines, including the 2, 3, 4, 5, A, C, J, and Z trains, making it one of the best-connected neighborhoods in the city. Battery Park, Bowling Green, and the 9/11 Memorial provide open green space and waterfront access at the foot of the skyline.
