About Tribeca
The borders of Tribeca are Canal Street, Broadway, Chambers Street, and West Street. Its name is an acronym of its positioning as the “triangle below Canal.” What was once a largely industrial area became a haven for artists in the 1970s, who enjoyed the many large, open live/work lofts. Actors, models, and other celebrities soon followed suit, making Tribeca one of the most desirable neighborhoods in New York City.
Fun fact: Robert De Niro co-founded the Tribeca Film Festival in 2002 to revive the area’s spirit following the September 11 attacks.
