Financial District
What to Expect
The Ultimate Conversion
The Financial District, or FiDi, is the heartbeat of global commerce, defined by its iconic skyscrapers and high-energy atmosphere. While it remains a fast-paced professional hub by day, the neighborhood transforms into a serene residential retreat in the evening. As the workday crowd clears, residents enjoy a quieter community that offers a unique 24/7 lifestyle in the city’s historic center.
The rental inventory in the Financial District is arguably the most unique in the city, thanks to the neighborhood's massive wave of commercial-to-residential conversions. Residents here live in repurposed skyscrapers that were once zoned for commercial use. This can translate into soaring ceiling heights, oversized windows originally designed to illuminate office floors, and rock-solid construction that makes these apartments incredibly quiet. It is a rare opportunity to live inside the grand Art Deco and Neoclassical architecture of "Old New York," but with modern interiors.
The Financial District has shed its '9-to-5' reputation to become one of the city's most dynamic culinary destinations.
