About
The Lower East Side is one of New York City’s most historic immigrant neighborhoods—a place where generations of newcomers began their American story. Since the 1840s, waves of immigrants from Germany, Italy, Eastern Europe, the Caribbean, and Asia have settled here, shaping the neighborhood into one of the most culturally rich areas in the city.
