rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author whitty - On a recent trip to Manhattan, I met up with a friend at Lansky's Lounge, a bar located in the lower East Village. We got there by taking a cab down from Midtown, and my friend wasn't kidding when she told me it was "off the beaten path" and...

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author buffychick - I've lived on the Lower East Side pretty much my entire life (barring the four years my family moved to rural hell). As a result I've borne witness to the insane changes in the East Village over the past 20 years. There was a time when out of towners...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author azumpano - There's plenty to see, do, and eat, and that's even before you hit the "letter" avenues!

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Cynar - The East Village has a depth of history, of community, and of culture that few tourists, or even weekend partiers from other neighborhoods and boroughs, experience. Yes, you can walk down St. Mark's place and buy used CDs at Sounds and some 3-for-$5...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author abhaille - We have a family member who lives in the East Village and we always stay with her when we go to the city. After several trips, it feels like home. I never realized that a block in the city could have the feel of a neighborhood. Such a fun, fascinating,...

trvl-Dest-United States-New York-NYC-East Village: Just enough variety to keep it real, just enough drug dealers to prevent a tourist invasion

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author bsilver - Growing up in Greenwich Village was quite a character-builder. Unfortunately, NYU's expansion of territory and skyrocketing rents with their yuppie following have stripped it of it's real nature. The East Village is the last vestige of what New York...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author nsgraham - The East Village has been my spiritual home now for over 10 years.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author tanya_marsh - The Strand Bookstore, located near Union Square in the Village, is the greatest bookstore I have ever had the joy to explore.
