Walking in NYC (The West Village, Manhattan)
West Village, Manhattan
The West Village is western portion of the Greenwich Village neighborhood in the New York City borough of Manhattan. Though there are no defined boundaries, the area is usually defined as bounded by the Hudson River and either Sixth Avenue or Seventh Avenue, extending from 14th Street down to Houston Street. Bordering neighborhoods include Chelsea to the north, the Hudson Square section of SoHo to the south, and the core of Greenwich Village to the east.
A sub-neighborhood, the Far West Village, extends from the Hudson River to Hudson Street.
The neighborhood is distinguished by streets that are "off the grid" — set at an angle to the other streets in Manhattan — sometimes confusing both tourists and city residents alike.

1. The famous gay statues in the West Village. Facing this little park (Christopher Park) is that gay bar Stonewall, where the 1969 gay riots started. Eventually all the gay celebrations in the world originated after these protests.
