The Jarmulowsky Bank Building is a 12-story building on the Lower East Side of Manhattan in New York City. Located at Canal Street and Orchard Street, the Jarmulowsky Bank Building was built in 1912 and designed by architects William Lawrence Rouse and Lafayette A. Goldstone in the Beaux-Arts style. The building is faced with limestone at its lower section and architectural terracotta on its higher section. Sender Jarmulowsky established the Jarmulowsky Bank in 1873. When World War I broke out two years after the bank building was completed, there was a run on the bank, as German investors withdrew funds to send to relatives abroad, and the bank failed.Until 1990, the building featured a massive tempietto rising 50 feet to a dome ringed by eagles. The building was renovated in 1990 by Sing May Realty and the tempietto destroyed. In 2014, a proposal to build a replica of this structure was approved by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. This was completed and unveiled by the beginning of 2020.The building is now used for commercial purposes. In 2013 the building was slated for conversion into a boutique, luxury hotel.

Dimes is a restaurant located in the Lower East Side neighborhood of New York City. Alissa Wagner and Sabrina DeSousa founded the restaurant in 2013. There is also an associated deli, called Dimes Deli, and a store, Dimes Market, both in the same neighborhood as the restaurant.

Dimes Square is a so-called "microneighborhood" of New York City, located between the Chinatown and Lower East Side neighborhoods of Manhattan. The exact perimeter and nature of the neighborhood is debated, though survey data from The New York Times lists it as roughly the five blocks on either side of Canal Street between Allen Street and Essex Street. The neighborhood's name, a play on "Times Square", refers to Dimes, a restaurant located at the intersection of Canal Street and Division Street on the Lower East Side. According to Marisa Meltzer of The New York Times, the nickname has transitioned from a term used "jokingly" to one used "semi-seriously". The term Dimes Square has become a metonym for a number of associated reactionary aesthetic movements centered in the area. Media associated with the area include the podcast Red Scare, pirate radio station Montez Press Radio, and defunct print newspaper The Drunken Canal. An online Dimes zine named Byline was established in 2023 by Gutes Guterman and Megan O'Sullivan. Ben Smith cited the neighborhood's emergence as a lockdown-flouting cultural hub during the COVID-19 pandemic in a 2021 New York Times piece. As the Covid-19 restrictions receded and the neighborhood became more mainstream, the associated transgressive art movement digitized and became increasingly prominent in online culture. In 2022, Julia Yost, an editor at First Things, a conservative religious journal, argued in an op-ed in The New York Times that the neighborhood and associated podcasters such as Dasha Nekrasova of Red Scare are the center of a post-ironic revival of traditionalist Catholicism. The American indie-pop band Bleachers reference Dimes Square in their 2024 song "Jesus is Dead" from their self-titled album Bleachers. In 2020, two blocks of Canal Street were closed off for an Open Streets permit, resulting in what Hannah Goldfield of The New Yorker describes as a "circus", "every night a music festival in the piazza."

Canal Street was a station on the demolished IRT Second Avenue Line in Manhattan, New York City. It had two levels. The lower level had two tracks and two side platforms and the upper level had one track that served the express trains. The next stop to the north was Grand Street. The next stop to the south was Chatham Square. The station closed on June 13, 1942.

The Eldridge Street Synagogue is a synagogue and National Historic Landmark in Chinatown, Manhattan, New York City. Built in 1887, it is one of the first synagogues erected in the United States by Eastern European Jews. The Orthodox congregation that constructed the synagogue moved into the downstairs beth midrash in the 1950s, and the main sanctuary was unused until the 1980s, when it was restored to become the Museum at Eldridge Street.

The Museum at Eldridge Street is a museum located within the Eldridge Street Synagogue that tells the story of its congregation and contemporary Jewish culture and practice. While historically part of the Lower East Side of Manhattan, Chinatown has expanded east and the museum is considered to be part of both neighborhoods. The museum, which was designed by Walter Sedovic and Jill H. Gotthelf, opened in December 2007 following the synagogue's twenty-year renovation, during which time it was known as the Eldridge Street Project. The capstone of the renovation was the installation of Kiki Smith and Deborah Gans' stained glass window to replace a plain one that congregation had installed to protect the sanctuary when funds were limited. The museum later played host to an exhibit dedicated to Smith's work.In addition to telling the history of the synagogue's congregation, restoration, and the neighborhood's history, the museum also tells the story of other neighboring organizations, such as The Forward, and the broader Jewish community. The museum's "Egg Rolls, Egg Creams and Empanadas" Festival, held annually in June, celebrates the neighborhood's diversity.

The Church of St. Teresa is a Roman Catholic parish located at 16-18 Rutgers Street on the corner of Henry Street in the Lower East Side neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. The parish is under the authority of the Archdiocese of New York. The church building was constructed in 1841-42 as the Rutgers Presbyterian Church erected in the Gothic Revival style on a plot of ground donated by Colonel Henry Rutgers, and it is said to have oldest public clock in New York City. The church was taken over by St. Teresa's Parish in 1863, only three years after it was founded.A special feature of the New York Times in 1901 mentioned the church among other Catholic structures in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, describing the group "for the most part...limit[ing] themselves to the functions of a parish church, in districts where social needs are otherwise supplied."The AIA Guide to New York City describes the church as “An ashlar church in the tradition of the others nearby, which antedate 1850. This one conducts services in three languages: English, Spanish and Chinese.”

Scarr's Pizza is a pizzeria at 22 Orchard Street in the Lower East Side neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. The restaurant was founded in 2016 by Scarr Pimentel, a New York native who learned to make pizza at Lombardi's.Staff mills some of the wheat for the restaurant's fermented crust in the pizzeria's basement daily, mixing it with flour from upstate New York in a compromise to keep up with demand. It is the only pizza-by-the-slice restaurant milling its own flour in New York, according to Serious Eats. Gothamist wrote that its cheese is a combination of three types of mozzarella and sauce is made fresh.The restaurant sourced much of its decor from a bowling alley which, in combination with its wood paneled walls, and letter boards, is intended to recreate the diner-like aesthetic of neighborhood pizzerias from the 1970s or 1980s. Several reviewers praised the dough, cheese, sauce, and ingredient selection, and it was named one of the best pizza slices in New York by the New York Times, Gothamist, and Serious Eats. In a mixed review by The Infatuation, Bryan Kim wrote that Scarr's works better if you think of it as a bar that serves pizza rather than expect a comfortable sit-down restaurant.A second location in a food hall in Midtown Manhattan was planned, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
