Alphabet City
A bohemian enclave within the East Village, Alphabet City is a laid-back residential area with trendy restaurants and bars, plus craft cocktail lounges and a popular German beer garden. A mix of students, artists and young families sunbathe and walk their dogs in Tompkins Square Park. Avenue C, home to a close-knit Puerto Rican community, is dotted with bodegas, charming resident gardens and colorful murals.
