Office Space - Chinatown, NYC Chinatown is home to one of the largest populations of Chinese people outside of Asia.The exact borders of C-town are of great dispute and appear to be ever changing. They are approximately between Broadway and East Broadway and south of Grand Street and north of Worth Street.

In 2010 C-town and Little Italy were listed in a single district on the National Register of Historic Places.The most recognizable street in C-town is Doyers Street. It has … (1 comments)

Office Space - Tribeca, NYC South of Canal Street, between Broadway and West Street, and going south to Chambers Street, the “Tribeca” neighborhood is one of New York City’s most infamous, partially due to the presence of the Tribeca Film Festival, but primarily due to its cultural relevance.
