The Village Alliance was signed into law as a
Business Improvement District (BID) in September of 1993, by the Mayor
of New York City, to include within its boundaries 8th Street
from Sixth Avenue to Second Avenue and St Marks Place; Astor Place and
Sixth Avenue from West 4th Street to 8th Street.
Within the district boundaries are two special designations: The
Greenwich Village Historic District and The Special
Limited Commercial District, a zone created to protect the
historic nature of the commercial area which along 8th Street
and Sixth Avenue is located in a variety of Brownstone-type buildings
representing a number of architectural styles of a bygone era.
The Village Alliance represents a district comprised of residential, mixed-use and
commercial properties that are linked together in true neighborhood
fashion; small, owner-operated shops outnumber the more regional and
national chain-store operations thus lending a typical, small village
atmosphere to an otherwise urban environment.
Among the programs we provide to our constituents are supplemental
public safety and sanitation services, graffiti removal, economic
development and community revitalization, facade improvement, marketing
and promotion, streetscape enhancements and tourist information and
tours. These services are delivered by a professional staff working
closely with all our constituents to make the Village Alliance a better
area in which to live, work, learn and play.
