Boundaries: Like so many neighborhoods in New York, it depends on who you ask. The question is not simplified by the area's city agencies (for instance, the Two Bridges Urban Renewal District is in between the Williamsburg and Manhattan bridges, but the Two Bridges Historic District is in between the Manhattan and Brooklyn bridges). But most agree that nowadays, Two Bridges is bounded by the East River to the east, the Brooklyn Bridge to the south, St. James Place to the west, East Broadway to the northwest and Montgomery Street to the north.
Transport: Subway: F to East Broadway. Bus: 9; 15; 22.
