Little Italy occupies a compact corridor along Mulberry Street in Lower Manhattan between Canal and Houston Streets, defined by red-brick tenement buildings, prewar walk-ups, and cast-iron-facade commercial structures dating to the late 19th century. St. Patrick's Old Cathedral, completed in 1815, anchors the neighborhood's architectural heritage alongside narrow storefronts and fire-escape-lined facades. The 6 train at Spring Street, N/R/W at Canal Street, and J/Z at Bowery place multiple subway options within a short walk.
