Lower East Side design walk (Orchard & Canal)

Lower East Side · Shopping walking route · Free

The Lower East Side is where the city's newer, sharper retail is opening, and it's walkable in an afternoon. String together Coming Soon, Bode, Mannahatta, ESSX, and finish with a coffee in Nine Orchard's restored-bank lobby. It's grittier and less polished than SoHo, which is exactly why the shops are more interesting right now.

A walk through the LES's current design-retail wave — concept stores, craft shops, and a restored-bank hotel.
