About Lower East Side

The Lower East Side (LES) is a neighborhood where New York’s gritty history meets its high-end future. Known for its legendary nightlife and deep immigrant roots, the area has seen a dramatic transformation with the arrival of luxury towers like Essex Crossing. The housing stock is a unique mix of historic walk-up cooperatives, value-driven HDFC units, and ultra-modern condominiums that offer some of the best views in Downtown Manhattan.
