There are more than 1,300 places to stop and shop, dine and tour in Lower Manhattan. If you’re frazzled this holiday season – trying to find the perfect scarf, toy or bottle of wine – we have an easy way, and it’s right at your fingertips.

The Downtown Alliance recently launched a free mobile application, featuring events, activities and alerts in Lower Manhattan.  This on-the-go application – available in Apple’s iTunes App Store by searching for “Downtown NY” – is designed to offer year-round information on local recreational, cultural and culinary events happening below Chambers Street.

The mobile app also features many holiday events in our one-square-mile, from tree lightings to choral performances. It’s worth checking out this holiday season – but of course, you can use it all year long!
