"Seward Park is a Must See"

If you ever wanted to visit a place so lovely, you must see Seward Park. It borders Essex St and E. Broadway. The street itself is kind of grimy along the way, but when you get to the park, it is transformed by the greenery.

When you are in Manhattan, you must come to Essex St and visit Seward Park.
Pros
  • Beautiful looking area
  • Beautiful park at end of road
Cons
  • Little too dirty in spots

"Good nightlfe in the heart of L.E.S"

Essex Street is centrally located on the Lower East Side and offers a really interesting mix of places, people and stops. The Pickle Guys is a must stop for anyone who enjoys a great pickle. You can't miss it the big green awning gives it away. Boss Tweed's Saloon is a great themed bar that really goes out of it's way to host a great time. Flip Cup, Karokee and free wings!

"Middle of the LES"

By now you might have figured out that I love the Lower East Side, but Essex isn't quite as interesting/fashionable as the rest of the neighborhood. It's pretty unavoidable, though, if you're wandering around the neighborhood, because it is geographically smack in the middle of the action. There's a pub near the Delancey Street subway station called Boss Tweed's that is generally full of business men or other people who work in the neighborhood.

"Cool street on the lower east side!"

The bars and clubs on the lower east side are the best places to party in New York City. There are a few haunts on Essex that are amazing. I highly recommend Mason Dixon at 133 Essex St. They have a mechanical bull! I would always stop on by the Essex Restaurant for brunch the morning after a night of partying to get something to eat. This street also bisects Canal St in Chinatown. There are so many places to see on this street, but my favorite part of Essex is between Delancey St and Rivington St.

"Essex Street is filled with delights!"

Essex Street is nearby all of the conveniences of the neighborhood, and actually houses a few of its own. The East Side Company Bar is an excellent place to cool your heels after a long work day and if you're hungry, stop by the Essex Restaurant, where I'm sure you'll be able to chow down on some good old American food.

Essex Street is close to the following metro stations: 6 at Spring Street, F, J, M, Z at Essex St- Delancey St, and the J, M, Z at Bowery. It is also accessible to many buses. Foot traffic is moderate, and it is a good neighborhood for all people!
