[net.music] Where is the West Village?

ark (10/27/82)

I posted an article recently that referred to Arthur's Tavern
in the West Village.  It has been pointed out to me that not
everyone is familiar with the name.  The West Village is a name
used to refer to part of Manhattan, which in turn is one of the
five boroughs of New York City.  The area runs from the Hudson River,
which is the west boundary of Manhattan, to approximately Broadway,
and from Houston Street (pronounced house-ton!) to 14th Street.
The West Village is the western part of the larger area called
Greenwich Village.
