For Rent - $4,095/month Available September 8, 2026
Welcome to Village living, done right. Tucked into a classic red-brick building on one of the neighborhood's most storied blocks, Apartment 3L is a smartly laid-out home that flexes with your life - whether that's working from home, hosting friends, or just decompressing after a day in the city.
The Space
A versatile open layout blends living, sleeping, dining, and a dedicated work nook into one cohesive footprint - no wasted square footage here. The kitchen comes outfitted with brand-new appliances, and the windowed bathroom brings in natural light most rentals can't touch. Three deep closets mean actual storage (a rarity down here), and a grand entry foyer sets the tone the moment you walk in. North-facing windows overlook the everyday buzz of East 8th Street.
The Neighborhood
You're not just renting an apartment - you're renting a zip code. Washington Square Park is practically your front yard, and the Village's legendary food scene (hi, Del Arte) is scattered across every block around you. Cafes, bistros, bars, bookstores - it's all here, all walkable.
Building Perks
Getting Around
Major subway lines and bus routes are all within easy reach, so the rest of Manhattan is never more than a quick ride away - while home stays firmly planted in the heart of it.

Quick Profile
Birthplace of beatniks, Greenwich Village has always been a neighborhood bursting with creativity, home to artists, poets, musicians and writers. There is a lot of foot traffic in the neighborhood, as it gives convenient access to many other neighborhoods. There are a lot of popular eateries on MacDougal Street and bars on Bleecker Street. The neighborhood has a bit of a college-town feel, due to the presence of NYU. There aren’t large chain stores here, so it isn’t really a mecca for shopaholics, but you can find interesting vintage stores and specialty boutiques.
Available housing is centered on pre-war walk-ups. You can find good deals on the quieter, tree-lined side streets, as opposed to the bustling avenues. There are pockets of brownstones and townhouses, some dating back to the early 19th century, throughout the neighborhood, as well. You will find more luxurious housing in the newer high-rise buildings on Park and Fifth Avenues.
Washington Square Park is the heart of the neighborhood. If you sit near the Arch and close your eyes, you might catch an echo of the music and social history of the Park, floating through the air. Greats like Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, and Paul Simon started their storied careers right here in Greenwich Village. Today, the Village is a celebration of diversity, where everyone is welcome.
