Lower East Side
The
Lower East Side
, sometimes abbreviated as
LES
, is a
neighborhood
in the southeastern part of the
New York City
borough
of
Manhattan
, roughly located between the
Bowery
and the
East River
, and
Canal Street
and
Houston Street
. Traditionally an immigrant,
working-class
neighborhood, it began rapid
gentrification
in the mid-2000s, prompting
The National Trust for Historic Preservation
to place the neighborhood on their list of
