Photos of Lower Manhattan

Lower Manhattan is located in New York, United States, and its common boundaries are north to Fourteenth Street, west to the Hudson River, east to the East River, and south to New York Harbor. When referring to Lower Manhattan's business district, it usually means north to about 1.5 miles south of Fourteenth Street, and one mile north of the southern tip of the island, from Chambers Street near the Hudson River and east to the Brooklyn Bridge entrance and exit and overpass. Two other major thoroughfares are also sometimes identified as the northern boundary of Lower Manhattan: Canal Street, approximately half a mile north of Chambers Street, and 23rd Street, approximately half a mile north of Fourteenth Street.
