Lying on the southern tip of Manhattan, Battery Park City offers expansive greenery, tree-lined streets and spectacular water views. The quiet calm of this self-contained neighborhood feels more suburban-like than Manhattan. One of the city's newest neighborhoods, it hosts many luxury hi-rise apartments which blend with the nearby colonial buildings and vestiges of the country's earliest days in the financial district. Covering over 90 acres, Battery Park City is bounded by Chambers Street in the North to Pier A, and West Street to the East to the Hudson River. Residents can enjoy waterfront walks, biking along the esplanade and the myriad galleries of nearby Tribeca. Many families and professionals also enjoy the proximity to the financial district, making it easy to get to and from work. Battery City Park sports a Marina, free outdoor concerts at the South Street Seaport and Winter Garden, and boats sailing off to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. Since the destruction of 9/11, nowhere in New York is the city's indomitable spirit more abundant.
