Financial District

Residential conversions, a post-work hotel-bar scene, and a cannabis pattern built around tourists and the new resident class.

The Financial District is not the ghost town after 6 p.m. it was a decade ago. Office-to-residential conversions have filled the area with a new resident class, the Seaport has rebuilt its restaurant row, and the hotel-bar scene pulls both tourists and after-work traffic. Licensed dispensaries are still comparatively sparse below Canal, but growing, and delivery fills the gap. The cannabis-aware version of a FiDi evening often runs a walk along the waterfront, a THC seltzer at a hotel bar, a low-dose edible before dinner. 21+ only.
