2019 marked the 50th anniversary of the designation of the Greenwich Village Historic District, and we celebrated! Throughout the year, we conducted programs and releasing research and tools to help highlight the critical importance and rich history of the Greenwich Village Historic District.

New Interactive Online Map of the Greenwich Village Historic District on Its 50th Birthday! This great new tool allows you to see side-by-side photos of every one of the more than 2,200 buildings in the district in 1969 at the time of designation, and today. It also offers tours of the district’s incredibly rich history, architecture, writers and artists, theaters, houses of worship, and more. Explore it all here.
