TriBeCa is a neighborhood in lower Manhattan, New York in the United States. It takes its name from the acronym TriBeCa, for Triangle Below Canal Street.

The name has an interesting etymology. In the early 1970s, a couple of years after artists in SoHo were able to legalize their live/work situation, artist and resident organizations in the area to the south, known then as Washington Market or simply the Lower West Side, sought to gain similar zoning status for their neighborhood.
A group of Lispenard Street artist/residents living on the block directly south of Canal Street between Church Street and Broadway, joined the effort. Just as the members of the SoHo Artists Association coined ‘SoHo’ after looking at a City Planning map which marked the area as ‘So. Houston’ and shortened that to SoHo, these Lispenard Street residents likewise employed a City Planning map to describe their block.
Lispenard Street, the block immediately below Canal is wide on the Church Street side but narrows towards the Broadway end. It appears as a triangle on City maps. The Lispenard residents decided to name their group the Triangle Below Canal Block Association, and, as activists had done in SoHo, shortened the group’s name to the TriBeCa Block Association.
A reporter covering the zoning story for the New York Times came across the block association’s submission to City Planning and mistakenly assumed that the name TriBeCa referred to the entire neighborhood, not just one block. Once the “newspaper of record” began referring to the neighborhood as TriBeCa, it stuck. <This was related by former resident and councilmember for the area, Kathryn Freed, who was involved in the 1970s TriBeCa zoning effort.
