Manhattan, New York

Living in East Village

Walk-ups, Tompkins Square and one of the city's liveliest food scenes.

The East Village is walk-up New York at its most energetic: tenement buildings, community gardens, cheap eats next to celebrated restaurants, and bars that stay busy late.

Tompkins Square Park is its backyard, and Union Square's greenmarket is a short walk away.
