Little Italy is a neighborhood in Lower Manhattan, New York City, that was once known for its large population of Italians. Historically, Little Italy extended from Bleecker in the north to Bayard Street in the south, and from Lafayette in the west to the Bowery in the east. Over the last few decades, the character of Little Italy has diluted, as Italian Americans moved out to peripheral boroughs and neighborhoods.
Today much of Little Italy has been absorbed by Chinatown, as immigrants from China and other East Asian countries moved to the area. The northern reaches of Little Italy, near Houston Street, ceased to be recognizably Italian, and eventually became the neighborhood known today as NoLIta, an abbreviation for North of Little Italy. Today, the section of Mulberry Street between Broome and Canal Streets, lined with Italian restaurants popular with tourists, remains distinctly recognizable as Little Italy.
The biggest celebration in Little Italy is the Feast of San Gennaro, a large street fair that last 11 days. It takes place every September along Mulberry Street between Houston and Canal Streets.
Other Italian American neighborhoods in New York City include Little Italy of the Bronx (on Arthur Avenue, in the Fordham section of The Bronx); Bensonhurst, Brooklyn; Howard Beach, Queens; Ozone Park, Queens; Middle Village, Queens; Morris Park, the Bronx and the whole borough of Staten Island, where 44.5% of the population is of Italian ancestry, the highest percentage of Italian-Americans in a county in the United States.
