Chambers St Between Church St and West Broadway

This eclectic block crams a whole bunch of odd things into a very short distance. With a combination of old and new buildings lining the street, there's always something to glance up at. Most of the street level is packed with commercial storefronts and restaurants – which tends to make the block feel more crowded than it is.

Even though Chambers is a major two-way street, it doesn't have the typical 4-lane layout that other major thoroughfares enjoy- which makes it feel simultaneously vast and cramped.
