Tribeca, also known as the “Triangle Below Canal” is located southwest of SoHo and is one of the most highly-desired nabes in the city. Once an industrial nabe, Tribeca experienced a flux of artsy folk back in the 70s and has since transformed into a hip Manhattan hotspot with reputable restaurants that don’t become busy until late in the night, trendy bars, and luxe high-rise apartments that house some of the city's finest.
If you are looking for a nabe in downtown Manhattan with more creature comforts than the Far West Village or Soho, but still full of character, then you’ll want to look at Tribeca. There is no shortage of great architecture, cobblestone streets, local restaurants (The Odeon, Bubby’s, Locanda Verde), coffee (La Colombe, Kaffe 1668), and shopping (Adeline Adeline, J.Crew Liquor Store, Steven Alan). But in addition to its charm, Tribeca is just a convenient place to live, with access to almost all major express subways, and creature comforts like Whole Foods and Bed Bath & Beyond.
The bad news is that all of this comes at a price, and rents here are among the city’s highest (in large part due to the young families lured by the great schools). There are plenty of expensive loft condos to be had, but when it comes to apartments, there just aren’t many options in Tribeca proper (west of Church Street). But, it’s worth a shot – it’s a sweet place to live.
