We made a stop at Union Square Station on Saturday to enjoy the flare of the local open air vegetable markets! Walked through Union Square onto Greenwich Village where we enjoyed 4-blocks of outdoor vendors selling their bargains!

Greenwich Village just has a great neighborhood feeling with a lot of beautiful streets and of course shops and eatery's.

Washington Square in the centre of Greenwich village is where you have the main NY university buildings. It's a very calm area with some cobbled streets and old houses. There are lots of little shops as well as a couple of sex shops which was a bit of a surprise.

This is the place you want to go if you want to see where the locals hang out! We went here to find a nice restaurant for dinner on our final day in New York.

Greenwich is home from home for a brit like me. I loved the little alleys and cobbled streets. I loved the houses and the lack of skyscrapers. There's a cafe or bar on every street corner and prices are very reasonable too. Greenwich is a very colourful place with a bohemian atmosphere. It's a lovely place to just wander around.... More

A slice of NY life - if bohemian, quaint, arty and perhaps a little nerdy is your style. Take the bus or subway to get the best experience.

A center of intellectual and creative foment has kept its landmarks but succumbed to floods of drunken sports fans overflowing their favorite TV bars. Many nice cafes and restaurants with charms deferred.
