Greenwich Village

Greenwich Village is a bohemian neighborhood, with a beatnik past, that is filled with students from New York University (NYU).

It is one of Manhattan’s most lively neighborhoods. The small streets are filled with restaurants, bars and boutiques. As the home of New York University (NYU), The Village is full of students.

Washington Square Park is the heart of Greenwich Village.

Open streets include MacDougal St and Thompson St below the Park, and University Place on the east side. Bleecker St is another great walking street.

Sub-neighborhoods include the West Village and Meatpacking District east of Sixth Avenue.

Greenwich Village Culture

Greenwich Village is Bohemian

The heart of Greenwich Village is Washington Square Park. It has great people watching on warm days. New York University (NYU) is in Greenwich Village, so the neighborhood has a lot of youthful energy.

MacDougal Street is a fun late night spot. The falafel shops are great. Bleecker Street also has cool shops and nightclubs that are popular with the college crowd.
