Greenwich Village apartments offer some of the nicest options for where to live in New York City. Greenwich Village occupies the middle section of upper downtown Manhattan, from Houston Street to 14th Street and from Broadway to 6th Avenue. It includes a nice cross section of students, young adults and families, with a multitude of restaurants and bars. The best real estate to be had is found along the northern and western sections of Washington Square Park, where numerous doorman buildings are located.
Greenwich Village’s food and drinks scene is one of the best in the city, catering to people with various-sized wallets. Babbo, Il Mulino and Minetta Tavern are frequently packed with upscale patrons, while Mamoun’s, OTTO and Grey Dog Café take care of the more laid-back crowd. Options for drinks extend from dive bars to more classy destinations. There is also a wide selection of entertainment venues, including comedy and jazz clubs and other performance spaces.
Washington Square Park separates the northern and southern sections of the Village and is a favorite for residents and NYU students. Despite continued park construction, the aesthetic value of the Washington Square Arch, especially at night, adds to the allure of this wonderful space. In addition, individuals can bring their dogs to the dog park and interact with other owners.
