About Financial District

Dog walking in Financial District, what it actually looks like

The Financial District (FiDi) is the high-rise residential conversion neighborhood at Manhattan's southern tip, anchored by Battery Park and the New York Harbor waterfront. Many of the old office towers have been converted to residential condos in the last 15 years, creating a dense small-breed-condo market.

FiDi sitters skew finance-and-tech-worker, often with hybrid-RTO schedules. The breed mix favors small dogs: Frenchies, Yorkies, Cavaliers, Maltese. Battery Park provides the central green space; the East River Esplanade and Hudson River Greenway both terminate here.
