Neighborhood: Greenwich Village
Sandwiched between its sister villages to the east and west, the borders of Greenwich Village are as debatable as where to find New York City’s best bagel. Generally speaking, this centrally located neighborhood is bordered by 14th Street to the north, Houston to the south, Bowery to the east and Sixth Avenue to the west. Although, purists would say that the West Village is, in fact, part of Greenwich Village, and others might refer to the triangle between Bowery and Broadway as NoHo.
No matter the boundaries, this beautiful area has maintained its historic charm and Old New York character by largely eschewing the grid plan of 1811 and retaining a relatively low vertical profile with mid-rise apartment buildings, row houses and walk-up buildings. Washington Square Park acts as a gathering spot for neighborhood residents and as the ad hoc main quad for New York University, whose buildings surround the park to the north, east and south. NYU’s expansive – and expanding – foothold in the area keeps the neighborhood vibe youthful and energetic, while occasionally sparking consternation among long-time residents.
Quirky and eclectic are the perfect descriptors for this popular district where comedy clubs, chic boutiques, fine dining and world-famous basketball courts coexist with one of the nation’s premier academic institutions.
