Division Street, Manhattan

Division Street is a one way street in the Lower East Side of the New York City borough of Manhattan. It runs in a northeasterly direction with westbound traffic and passes beneath the Manhattan Bridge. It begins at Bowery and runs northeast to Canal Street at Ludlow Street.

It is mostly residential, and largely resides within the Chinatown neighborhood.

A segment of the Second Avenue Elevated Railroad used to run along Division Street between the Bowery and Allen Street.

The portion of Division Street under the Manhattan Bridge is used for a mall called the East Broadway Mall. There is a carpark at Market Street and next to it is the PS 124 Yung Wing Elementary School. The school is part of a residential complex called Confucius Plaza. At this point, the street widens. Buses to Flushing and casinos park on the right side. There use to be a greenmarket until it moved to the space under the Manhattan Bridge on Forsyth Street between Canal Street and Division Street. Before Bowery, there is a statue of Confucius and here most of the traffic gets diverted to Bowery and also Manhattan Bridge.
