West Village

The Guide

The block where Bleecker bends — the one that makes you forget what borough you're in.

The West Village is New York's most romantic neighborhood — a winding maze of pre-grid streets, Federal-era townhouses, and a village feel that survives everything the city throws at it. Carrie Bradshaw, Jimi Hendrix, and Bob Dylan all lived here. You'd understand why.
