The West Village retains its charm and allure thanks to landmark status that has kept building heights in check for most of the area, and with it many of the creatives that helped solidify its status as a Bohemian enclave. Today its cobblestone streets lined with brownstones draw an increasingly affluent resident, including many celebrities, who've found a zip code that hits the laid back yet sophisticated sweet spot, a perfect combination of restaurants, boutiques and, thanks to several reputable off-Broadway theatres, culture. The Whitney Museum adds to the appeal; it's perched on the Hudson River, with a pedestrian and bike path that's the perfect place to watch the sunset.
