This paper concentrates around the issue of inter-group relations in a pluralist society. Relations between Polish and Ukrainian immigrants in the United States were used as an example. What guides this article is tracing these relations in the sphere of everyday life in one of New York's Lower Manhattan neighborhoods, East Village. The text portrays the community established by the immigrants, and especially its past and the character of Polish-Ukrainian neighborhood, which, as it turns out, resembles Polish-Ukrainian neighborhood in the European borderland. In this way it attempts to answer the question about the character of transferring inter-group relations to the circumstances of immigration.

The paper is a case study and addresses the issue of intersection of the immigrant and artistic worlds, exemplified by functioning of Polish and Ukrainian communities in East Village in New York. The Author tries to show how ethnic can intersect with the world of alternative artistic and intellectual culture and what the consequences of such a phenomenon for the transformation of the ethnic neighborhood and its status among the diaspora can be. The analysis is embedded in the historical and humanist perspective, accentuating the “longue durée” process, emphasizing the importance of the area and the social relations going on there for their users. Such an approach allows to form a final question on the possibility of conceptualizing this particular ethnic neighborhood in terms of cultural heritage of the immigrant group.
