Known for being the neighborhood where “gritty meets trendy,” the Lower East Side is a testament to New York City’s ever-changing cultural landscape. From overcrowded tenement slums giving way to pricey high-rise condos, you can trace the neighborhood’s history by walking its streets. On Chrystie Street, you’ll encounter some of the best dim sum and Chinese cuisine the city has to offer, as well as world-class art galleries and unparalleled nightlife. It’s also where you’ll find this basement event space with jutting rock walls that gives this space a moody atmosphere.

THE CROWD

During the week, the sidewalks on Grand Street are filled with people buying foodstuff from the local Chinese markets that are prevalent in the area. Restaurants like Jing Fong and Nom Wah Tea Parlor are extremely popular with the weekend lunch crowd. At night, Randolph’s is crowded with people enjoying an after work drink, and One Mile House is a vintage speakeasy that’s good for date nights. The Grand Street B/D is one block up and the Canal Street subway station is an 8 minute walk.

MEET THE NEIGHBOURS

This space for rent sits in between a sushi restaurant and a beauty skin care shop. Across the way is the Sara D. Roosevelt Park and further up the street is The Bowery Ballroom, a popular concert venue.
