Lower East Side, Historic neighborhood in Manhattan, United States.

The Lower East Side extends from the Bowery to the East River, between Canal Street and Houston Street, featuring tenement buildings and narrow streets.

During the 19th century, millions of European immigrants established their first American homes in the crowded tenements of the Lower East Side.

The neighborhood contains numerous art galleries, music venues, and independent theaters that showcase emerging artists and experimental performances throughout the year.

The area connects to multiple subway lines at stations including Delancey Street-Essex Street, East Broadway, and Grand Street for efficient Manhattan travel.

The Tenement Museum preserves original apartments from the 1800s, allowing visitors to experience the living conditions of early immigrant families.
