West Village Neighborhood Guide

The West Village developed in the early 1800s as a country village outside of the city on lower Manhattan and so the island's orderly street grid never imposed its will on the community. Today some 80% of West Village has been declared a historic district so those narrow streets running at odd angles, with the cobblestones and neatly planted trees, are here to stay. The residents cherish their bucolic pieces of small town life in the big city, often including well-tended gardens. The West Village lifestyle appeals equally to the independent single and the ambitious professional, to the retiree and to the child-rearing family.

Architecture and landmarks

The streets are lined with row after row of Federalist and Greek Revival homes, a living textbook of 19th century architecture. The Stonewall Inn, a gay bar where patrons clashed with police in 1969, is now America's first national landmark dedicated to LGBT rights. The White Horse Tavern began life as a longshoreman's bar before morphing into a major gathering place for Bohemian writers and artists in the 1950s.

Transport

West Villagers enjoy convenient transportation to offices in the Financial District and Midtown from stops in Greenwich Village next door - at Washington Square Station residents can hop on the A,B, C, D, E, F and M trains. Several lines run under 7th Avenue - the 1, 2 and 3 can all be accessed at Christopher Street.

Schools

West Village youngsters share PS 3, Melser Charrette School, and PS 41, Greenwich Village School, with neighboring Greenwich Village. The Simon Baruch School and City-as-School serve secondary students. The City and Country School at 146 West 13th Street has been offering private instruction for children aged two to 12 since 1914 and St. Luke's School, with an enrollment of between 250 and 300 students, provides an Episcopal education from Junior Kindergarten through Grade 8.

Health

Instead of the recently demolished St. Vincent's Hospital, residents can now turn to New York Doctors Urgent Care for the treatment of all non-life threatening illnesses and injuries. No appointments are necessary and the facility on 13th Street is open all day, every day.

Safety

The West Village is one of New York's bastions of safety. The main exceptions come on weekend nights when the neighborhood is frequented by outsiders enjoying trendy night spots.

Things to do

West Villagers hold Hudson River Park as dear as Midtowners love Central Park. Skateboarding, beach volleyball and tennis are just the start of the sporting opportunities found here. The park stages a parade of events during the year from fishing derbies to Shell-ebrate Oysters, a festival honoring the long New York romance with the tasty bivalve. When it comes to eating, the West Village is legendary for its cozy cafes and bistros. The Magnolia Bakery spent so much time taking star turns on network television in the 1990s that it launched a national cupcake craze.

These days a half-dozen of their I Cupcake New York cakes sell for $30. Off-Broadway shows have infiltrated the neighborhood at the Cherry Lane Theater, Lucille Lord Theater and the Barrow Street Theater. And enough famous stars live in West Village that their houses have become stops for tour buses. One attraction that is not housed in a quaint 19th century building is the Whitney Museum of American Art which moved from the Upper East Side in 2015 into a Renzo Piano-designed showcase on Gansevoort Street, just outside the neighborhood border. The pre-eminent collection of 20th- and 21st-century American Art includes over 21,000 permanent pieces from more than 3,000 artists.

The most talked about new urban park in America opened above the West Village in 2009. The High Line was an abandoned 1.45-mile spur of the New York Central Railroad that was converted into an aerial greenway. It is estimated that today the High Line attracts five million visitors a year - more than the Grand Canyon. Bleecker Playground, celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2016, can seem just as busy with the younger crowd. Hudson River Park is another great alternative for spending weekend afternoons and for jogging.
