The Lower East Side of Manhattan is located in the far southeastern section of the island. Boundary of this area is not exactly finding because the area has been constantly changed and renewing. It is difficult to tell exactly where the Lower East Side end and where the adjacent neighborhood started. One interpreted the boundary by Bowery on the west, the East River to the east, Houston Street to the north and Grand Street to the south. But others believe it is bounded by the Brooklyn Bridge on the south to Houston Street on the north, from the East River to the Bowery.

The Lower East Side also knows as LES by the local people. It is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Manhattan. Over century, many working class immigrants arrived in New York and lived in the tenement buildings in the Lower East Side. The Lower East Side has been lived by many different ethnic groups.

You can dance and drink all night in the many clubs. Clinton Street offers great strip of food and drinks while Grand Street where you can find strictly kosher delicacies and bakeries. The Essex offers fresh produce. Orchard Street used to be full of cheap stores, now have closed down and instead designer shops, galleries. The affordable and wholesale shops continue to live on Delaney Street. East River possesses sports fields.
