Tribeca:
TriBeCa (Triangle Below Canal Street), was an industrial district that in the last decade has undergone a major revitalization. Many warehouses have been converted to livable residential lofts and new businesses which emerged make the neighborhood much more like a community than an industrial district. Residents like their neighborhood for its vibrancy, as well as for the solitude and harmony achieved by mixed zoning. They lunch in posh restaurants and shop in gourmet food stores, and boast of having everything they could possibly want or need just a few steps from their doors. Tribeca is now a fashionable residential neighborhood with an affluent population. The streets are lined with shops, art galleries, bars and restaurants. Tribeca is also home to many celebrities including Robert DeNiro, David Letterman and the late John F. Kennedy, Jr.
