Little Italy in New York City emerged in the late 1800s as Italian immigrants settled in lower Manhattan. At its peak in the early 20th century, the neighborhood stretched from Canal Street to Houston Street, and from the Bowery to Lafayette Street, housing nearly 200,000 Italian immigrants by 1920.The area was known for its lively streets filled with pushcarts, cheese shops, and tenements. Over time, Little Italy's boundaries have shrunk significantly due to rising rents and changing demographics. Today, it primarily consists of about three blocks along Mulberry Street.
Broadway in SoHo, which forms part of Little Italy's western border, has transformed from its industrial past into a trendy shopping and dining destination. The area is now characterized by cast-iron architecture, high-end boutiques, and art galleries. Both neighborhoods have experienced significant gentrification. While Little Italy retains some of its Italian heritage through restaurants and annual festivals like the Feast of San Gennaro, it has become more of a tourist attraction than a residential Italian enclave. Broadway in SoHo, meanwhile, has become a bustling commercial corridor known for its fashion and design scene.
