Skyline Views of Lower Manhattan. Long the home of writers, artists, bohemians, and bon vivants, the West Village is a singular section of the city.

High-rises and office towers have no business among the small curving streets, peculiar alleys, and historic town houses here, although a new boom in distinctive apartment living by designer architects has emerged around the western edges near the Hudson River. Primarily residential, the area also has many specialty restaurants, cafs, and boutiques with a warm and charming neighborhood vibe.

Tiny as they might be, restaurants like the Little Owl and 'ino invite you to linger, as do larger restaurants with outside dining areas. It's also easy to feel like a local while shopping here.

Unlike 5th Avenue or SoHo, the pace is slower, the streets are relatively quiet, and the scale is small. This is the place to come for unusual finds rather than global-brand goods.

Bleecker Street is a particularly good place to indulge all sorts of shopping appetites; high-fashion foragers prowl the stretch between West 10th Street and 8th Avenue. Hudson Street and Greenwich Avenue are also prime boutique-browsing territory.

Christopher Street, true to its connection with the lesbian and gay community, has a handful of rainbow-flag stops (less)
