by one of our tour guides.
GREENWICH VILLAGE IS AMONG MANHATTAN'S MOST DESIRABLE AND EXPENSIVE
RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS. Its history, however, betrays its monied
status. The VILLAGE, with its quiet, shaded streets, lined with lovely
brick and brownstone townhouses, was once the incubating ground of
artistic, social and political movements that have helped shape U.S.
history. From the Beats to the Folk Movement, from workers' rights to
gay rights, the VILLAGE HAS OFTEN BEEN THE CENTER OF NEW YORK AND
AMERICA'S SOCIAL MOVEMENTS.
