More on Greenwich Village
Description from Wikipedia:
Greenwich Village (pronounced: /ˌɡrɛnɪtʃ ˈvɪlɪdʒ/), often simply called "the Village", is a largely residential neighborhood on the west side of Lower Manhattan in New York City. A large majority of the district is home to upper middle class families. Greenwich Village, however, was known in the late 19th – earlier to mid 20th centuries as the bohemian capital and the birthplace of the Beat movement. What provided the initial attractive character of the community eventually contributed to its gentrification and commercialization.
It has been conjectured that the name of the village is an Anglicized version of a Dutch name Groenwijck, meaning "Pine District", rather than connected with Greenwich, London, England.
