West Village is bounded by Houston Street on the south end, by 14th Street on the north end, Seventh Avenue on the east side and Hudson River on the west. This downtown community encompasses a distinct cozy character and an old-world charm that living in this neighborhood actually feels like you’re in another European country. It is one of the several remaining areas in Manhattan where you’ll still find 19th century houses and tree-lined blocks.

This trendy neighborhood is characterized by streets uniquely laid out as “off the grid” which can oftentimes be confusing to both tourists and residents alike while 75 Bedford Street has the distinction of being “the narrowest house in the City” at 9.5 feet wide. Classic artist’s lofts such as the Westbeth Artists Community are housed here, along with new residential high rises at 173-176 Perry Street facing the Hudson River. Fashionable boutiques, quaint shops and night clubs are located at the Meatpacking District on the west edge of the community.

Transportation includes trains A, C and E with subway stations at 14th Street on the IND Eight Avenue Line, West 4th Street-Washington Square on the IND Sixth Avenue Line. Trains 1, 2 and 3 stop at 14th Street, Christopher Street-Sheridan Square and Houston Street.
