Bond Street is an east–west street running between Broadway and Bowery, in the NoHo neighborhood of Lower Manhattan in New York City.

History

The actual namesake of the street is undetermined. It may have been named for city surveyor William Bond, or for a mention in an 1817 guidebook referring to Broadway as "The Bond Street of New York".

24 Bond Street was the location of Beatrice and Sam Rivers' studio RivBea and of Robert Mapplethorpe's first studio. Mile End Sandwich, a spin-off restaurant of Mile End Delicatessen, the Jewish deli in Brooklyn, is located on Bond Street between Bowery and Lafayette Street. The Robbins & Appleton Building is located at the western end of the street, at 1–5 Bond Street, while the Bond Street Savings Bank is at the eastern end at 54 Bond Street. More recently, Bond Street became the location of stores for Billy Reid and Drake's OVO Clothing clothing brand.
