The West Village for Under $1M
By Michelle Cohen   |   From Great Listings Thursday, May 5, 2016
Home to movie stars, models, designers and other residents possessing a small fortune (at the very least), the West Village is one of Manhattan's most sought-after—and priciest—neighborhoods. From newly-minted residences like 150 Charles Street to beautifully-renovated townhouses and character-filled co-ops, anything with even a memory of six figures in this heaven-on-the-Hudson could be considered a find. We've found a few and listed them below.
