It's on the other side of 78, I personally wouldn't call it downtown

where would you call downtown? It's like 2 blocks from the holland tunnel.

Yeah but it’s outside 78. Inside 78 and LSP are the boundaries I’d use.

We need rules or else we’re just animals, and the David Bowie Lofts and Holland Tunnel Exhaust Fumes District (or as the locals call it, DaBoLoHoTuExFuDi) doesn’t make the cut.

I guess we all create our own boundaries. You're the first person I've heard who considers LSP downtown.

LSP isn’t downtown, but the edge facing downtown (which also used to not even have a car road) completes the boundary in conjunction with 78

And some people create their own neighborhoods, like SoHo West!

seriously. Realtors make that stuff up to try to make a "there there" when there isn't one. The biggest fail was trying to rename Hell's Kitchen "Clinton." LOL
