Sit in a Tiny Second Avenue Plaza Honoring a Deli Legend
Take a seat in a small triangular plaza named for the founder of the Second Avenue Deli, with summer concerts.
🪑 A Plaza With a Story
Abe Lebewohl Park sits at East 10th Street and Second Avenue, a 0.16-acre triangular plaza that honors Abe Lebewohl, who transformed the nearby Second Avenue Deli into a New York institution. A memorial flagpole stands within the small triangular footprint and the plaza offers a place to sit. In summer the plaza hosts a concert series with live music on the corner. The plaza opens daily from 6:00 AM to 1:00 AM, and it holds a 4.4 rating from 113 reviews. The name keeps the deli founder present on the street.
