Renting on the Lower East Side
The Lower East Side was for generations the city’s great immigrant neighborhood, and most of its housing is still five- and six-story tenements, along with large housing complexes built for working families after the Second World War. Large rental buildings are few, and the two indexed here show the range: 410 Grand Street, a 26-story building from 1972 owned by the Grand Street Guild near the Williamsburg Bridge, and Avalon Chrystie Place, a 2005 AvalonBay building on Chrystie Street beside Sara D. Roosevelt Park.
Renters come for the restaurants, bars and galleries of Orchard, Ludlow and Delancey Streets, and for a location within walking distance of SoHo, the East Village and Chinatown. The F, J, M and Z meet at Delancey-Essex Streets, and the B and D stop at Grand Street.
