About this Greenwich Village map poster
Greenwich Village is one of the few parts of Manhattan where the grid gives way. Its streets predate the Commissioners' Plan of 1811 and follow old property lines and paths, so they run at angles, bend and meet unexpectedly. The best-known result is the intersection of West 4th Street and West 10th Street, two streets that would never cross in the regular grid.
Washington Square Park, with its marble arch at the foot of Fifth Avenue, anchors the district, and New York University's buildings surround much of it. To the west, Christopher Street and the Stonewall Inn, a site central to the history of the LGBTQ rights movement, lie among small triangular blocks and quiet residential streets.
A Greenwich Village map poster makes the break in the grid its subject. The straight avenues to the north and east collide with the angled streets of the West Village, producing irregular triangles and wedges that give the print an unusual, almost European texture.

Pre-grid streets
In the West Village, streets run at angles and curve, creating small triangular blocks. On the poster they contrast sharply with the regular grid nearby.
West 4th and West 10th
The place where these two streets intersect is a small, well-known oddity of the Manhattan map, a reminder that the Village predates the grid.

Why Greenwich Village
A map that means something
Greenwich Village holds a lot of personal histories, from student years at NYU to first apartments and long walks without a destination. Its irregular streets make a map that is recognisable at a glance and rewarding to study.
Add your own title and subtitle and edit the coordinates line to mark a particular corner. Paper and Sand suit the brownstone streets, while Classic black and white brings out the collision with the grid.
