About Greenwich Village
Greenwich Village (pronounced "Grennich 'Village, which
is also called a village) is a largely residential area on the west side
of downtown (southern) Manhattan in New York City.
Nearby is approximately bounded by Broadway on the East, the Hudson
River on the west, Houston Street on the south and 14th Street on the
north. The neighborhoods surrounding it is a village in East East, Soho,
and Chelsea to the south-north. East Village, which was formerly known
as the Bowery or the Lower East Side, is occasionally referred to as
part of Greenwich Village, but rather consider their neighborhood. The
region was better known as Washington Square in the 19th century.
As Greenwich Village was once rural hamlet, entirely separate, New York,
its street layout does not coincide with most of Manhattan more formal
grid plan (based on the Commissioners' Action Plan 1811). Greenwich
Village was allowed to keep its street pattern, although the plan was
implemented, which has resulted in the neighborhood, whose streets are
dramatically different, in layout, from the ordered structure of other
parts of the city. Many neighborhood streets are narrow and the curve
has some odd angles. In addition, unlike most of Manhattan, the streets
are usually the name of the village, instead of numbered. While there
are some numbered streets in the village, although they do not always
correspond to the usual grid pattern when they enter the neighborhood.
For example, West 4th Street, which is the east-west outside of the
village, turns and runs north, crossing West 12th Street.
