Date: August 23rd, 2010 9:03 PM Author: Crawly Light Hall Private Investor i dunno dude don't you see the appeal of living in the high 50's? on the east side you got the best views in the city, especially by sutton place next to the bridge and some semblance of nightlife. good restaurants too and close enough to UES, e.g. you can hop in a cab and be at a restauranton upper madison in less than 5 minutes. even on the west side, some of the nicest buildings in the city are there. central park south, 50's and 8th ave. has some of the greatest high-rises in the world. 50's and 7th ave. has some of the classiest pre-war, albeit that's not really 20something territory.
residential living aside, the plaza district undoubtedly has the best offices in the whole city. most prestigious place to have an office. 9 west 57th, 767 5th, etc., |

You have a ton of amazing restaurants in your neighborhood, you have all the subway lines at your disposal (N,Q,R, A,C,E, B,D,F,M, 1,2,3) although I know ballers like RSF don't take the subway, you're near other cool neighborhoods (Soho, East Village, Chelsea) and there's a lot of good nightlife. Also, beautiful architecture right around the park. |

Date: August 24th, 2010 12:35 AM Author: Dashing Seedy Meetinghouse i say UWS or soho only because you can get a decent clean apartment for a reasonable price. in the cool parts of the village (like grove, bedford, perry), all the apartments are either pre-war walk-up roach motel type places or they're absurdly expensive. it's supply and demand; most of the properties in those neighborhoods are condos/co-ops or brownstones. incidentally, this is the same situation as tribeca.
you can get a nicer apartment closer to nyu, like off 5th/university between 8th st and union square, but then you're in nowhere near as cool of a neighborhood as soho or as nice a neighborhood as the UWS. |

Date: August 24th, 2010 12:54 AM Author: Dashing Seedy Meetinghouse it's a nice neighborhood, but i'd prefer to live in soho. more lively, closer to restaurants, shopping, interesting stuff. i think some parts of west village are definitely superior to both but they are priced accordingly - some of the most expensive real estate in manhattan actually.

Date: August 24th, 2010 12:58 AM Author: twinkling galvanic cumskin idk. i love soho, don't get me wrong but if i lived there the tourists would drive me crazy. i also never thought the restaurants were that great - they just seem overpriced and mediocre.

Date: August 24th, 2010 1:05 AM Author: Dashing Seedy Meetinghouse the restaurant thing is pretty subjective. both neighborhoods have similarly regarded food scenes, and both are close to east village. i guess chinatown/LES are more accessible from soho and chelsea is more accessible from WV.
i think the tourist thing is only a big deal if you live close to broadway. if you go east into nolita or west toward west broadway its more chill. just like in west village, it sucks to be right off 6th ave and gets better toward 7th ave and more west. |

Date: August 24th, 2010 6:39 PM Author: Citrine irradiated pozpig property i think the west village is a little more highly regarded in terms of restaurants actually. a lot of big names like babbo and otto. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1403320&forum_id=2#15870152) |
