Located in Downtown Manhattan on the East Side, bounded by Houston Street on the south bordering the Lower East Side, 14th Street on the north before Gramercy and Stuyvesant Town, Bowery and Third Avenue on the west (east of Greenwich Village) and the East River on the east side. East Village covers the neighborhoods of Avenues A to D, otherwise known as Alphabet City and North Houston (Astor Place, Broadway to the Bowery.)

East Village is an extensive neighborhood with a diversity of architectural wonders, vibrant social and cultural backgrounds and rich history. Many of the buildings are beautifully designed tenement-style walkups built during the 1900s at the height of immigrant settlement in New York. Tompkins Square Park, built during the late 1800s and renovated in the 1990s attracts young families, students and tourists from all over with its playgrounds and basketball courts, handball courts and outdoor chessboards. It is also voted as one of the best dog parks in the United States.

Venture to Astor Place and have a spin at Tony Rosenthal’s sculpture “Alamo”, known locally as “The Cube.” Check out some of the alternative retailers in St. Mark’s Place from Third Avenue to Avenue A, including Yaffa Café, Crif Dogs and a score of genuine Japanese restaurants and bars, not to mention the record stores that sells rare and competitively priced audio products. Wander to Cooper Square and you’ll find the Cooper Union campus, the Village Voice headquarters as well as New York University class buildings.

East Village subway stops include Astor Place (6), Second Avenue (F, V) and 8th Street/NYU (N, R). Bus M9 goes crosstown to the east on 8th and 10th Streets and back to the west on 9th Street.
