Location: The Financial District is located in Downtown Manhattan, south of City Hall and east of Broadway.

Sub-divisions: The Seaport/Fulton Street area and its surroundings is included in our definition, although some people consider it as a separate neighborhood. Also, the area adjacent to City Hall is sometimes referred to as "Civic Center".

Character: For most of the 20th century the Financial District was a 9-to-5 kind of neighborhood which emptied out at night. Not any longer, thanks to building conversions and NYU dorm additions that significantly increased the number of local residents. Nowadays, it is entirely possible to bump into a neighbor on the way home around midnight, especially on massively "residentialized" streets like John Street.

Wall Street, the nerve center of American capitalism, now contains quite a few luxury residental buildings. Ditto for John Street and Water Street.

With that said, the character of the neighborhood is not as lively as let's say, the East Village.

Apartments & Real Estate

Although rents in the area are on the high side, most managers are quite flexible and willing to throw in all kinds of perks - from free months to... well, other perks. If you choose to rent with a "fee" broker, some managers may offer to cover your broker's fee.

NAME

The Financial District (sometimes called the "Wall Street area" or, more annoyingly, the "FiDi") is named quite appropriately in that it's an area where many financial institutions are concentrated, although less densely than in the past.
