Wedged between SoHo to the East, Chelsea to the North and encompassing New York University, Greenwich Village is an eclectic mix of high-end boutique fashion and edgy university trendsetting.

Its famed Bohemian past and lovely pre-war architecture have made the area one of the most popular and expensive residential neighbourhoods, home to many known celebrities and politicians.
