Bowery, originally a street in lower Manhattan, has evolved to become a neighbourhood that balances historic nuance and modern sparkle. The very word 'Bowery' hints at the locals' penchant for anglicising words, in this case, the Dutch 'bouwerie', hearkening back to a time when the area was graced by sprawling farms. Today, Bowery is Manhattan’s oldest thoroughfare, brimming with cultural excitement, from landmark sites such as the New Museum of Contemporary Art and the Bowery Ballroom to the charismatic "Little Saigon" pocket that springs to life with Vietnamese cuisine.

There's more to it than fine dining and art, though. The Bowery has a rich and textured history, its fortunes having waxed and waned over centuries. Once an affluent district filled with fashionable hotels and theatres, it saw a decline into impoverishment, only to rise, phoenix-like, amidst a wave of gentrification in the late 20th century. Its association with the LGBT community and avant-garde arts echos Bowery's underlying spirit - one of evolution and survival, continually reshaping itself to the changing seasons of Manhattan.

When to visit Bowery

Planning a trip to Bowery? Ideally, mid-July to late September offers the best weather conditions with warm temperatures and a lower chance of rain. That being said, December travellers get to enjoy fresh powder for skiing, and hotel deals tend to be more abundant in spring. The peak tourism season spans the sunny months of July, August, and September. However, a visit during the fall months presents a combination of comfortable temperatures and an exciting buzz of tourism. Betwixt and between these choices, finding the perfect time to visit Bowery is, quite simply, a matter of personal preference.
