"Financial and business oriented"

Water street receives a rush of people during the working hours as it is home to many financial businesses, but it quiets as night falls. Many of the eateries in the area cater to the young financial crowd offering power lunches and the like. It's worth a stop and is an interesting place for tourists who are interested in the goings on of the financial world. There is a solid after-work crowd that stays in the area for some relaxing nightlife but overall it's business oriented.

"Financial Spill Over"

Water Street, close to Wall Street, has received a good deal of financial spill over from Wall Street. Significant office buildings have been built in the area that offer nice amenities and security. 55 Water Street is one of the premier buildings in the area. Elevated Acre gives workers solace from the crazy business world they are entrenched in during the day; proving that New York does understand what it's workers and citizens need. Overall Water Street has a nice vibe and beautiful views. It's a mixed neighborhood so it doesn't feel like it's all business or all residential. I tend to enjoy areas that are like that more in the city. It allows you to feel like you are given a little bit of everything.
