While Manhattan is infamously known for it's rigid grid; there are neighborhoods below 14th street that have that London-esque medieval twisty like pattern; most notably in the financial district; along side pockets in the West Village; Little Italy; Nolita; Chinatown; Tribeca. Fewer still in the LES and EV (stuyvesant street, Astor Place).

So at least Manhattan has a bit of that Euro layout in the older parts that pre-date the 1811 grid plan.
