Lower Manhattan Commuter Morning

Black Seed Bagels Nolita

7:00 AM — Grab-and-go at Black Seed Bagels

Start the day with a fresh wood-fired bagel and hot coffee while Nolita is still quiet. Elizabeth Street hasn’t filled in yet—boutiques are shuttered, dog-walkers are out, and the neighborhood offers a brief moment of calm before downtown wakes up.

7:20 AM — Walk through Nolita, SoHo & the Lower East Side

Take a short, grounding walk past Nolita storefronts toward The Bowery, with easy detours toward New Museum or the Lower East Side Tenement Museum. The route naturally connects SoHo, NoLIta, and the Lower East Side, blending neighborhood energy with an easy start to the day.

7:45 AM — Plug into work or the rest of downtown

From here, subway access fans out quickly—making it easy to reach Midtown, FiDi, or class without backtracking. You arrive fed, caffeinated, and already moving.
