Greenwich Village (and its subsection the West Village) is one of the most iconic and historic neighborhoods in the United States. This video traces the history of the neighborhood from its early days as a suburb of New York to its present status as one of the most affluent and wealthy places in the country. We discuss the Stonewall riots, Jane Jacobs, the tradeoffs and dangers of historic preservation, the infamous Cut article, and Washington Square Park.
