Oh the Places We Will Go (While Living in West Village Apartments)

The High Line

One of the first places you’ll want to visit once you’re all moved into your West Village apartment is The High Line. It’s more of a place you have to experience yourself, since no amount of explaining can really do it justice. In an attempt to describe it, The High Life is a series of elevated walkways that’s been built on old railroad tracks above the streets of NYC‘s Lower West Side. The artsy crowd loves the area and have lined the walkways with their unique displays of independent art. Along your journey through this unusual and intriguing area, you’ll find well thought out spots to sit and enjoy extremely unique views of the city landscape. Did I mention the landscaping? Beautiful greenery follows you along the walkway giving the area a peaceful and serene feel.

Tartine

If you are looking for a corner bistro that looks like it has been peeled right off of a motion picture screen or picture postcard, the Tartine is it. Always crowded, this unique cafe has a ‘bring your own wine’ policy, and they highly encourage it. You’ll also want to bring cash to pay the bill as they seem to be stuck in the pre-technology era. Located at 253 West 11th Street, you won’t want to miss this gem.

Three Lives & Company

Located at 154 West 10th Street, Three Lives & Company is the quintessential bookstore. It’s everything you would imagine or desire from the perfect bookstore. If you are looking for staff and shoppers who absolutely celebrate the written word, this is the place. Now in its fifth decade of operation, it carries a wide range of New York themed books, which perfectly reflect the mindset of the neighborhood. There’s something for everyone, from upscale gay topics to political and cultural works. You won’t be disappointed when visiting Three Lives & Company. A neighborhood icon and a must see for the avid reader or aspiring writer.
