East Village Apartments
Neighborhood Information for No Fee Apartment Renters
|
Lou Reed, Joey Ramon, and Madonna used to roam these East Village streets, but that was a long time ago; however, the Kiev and The Gem Spa live on. Gentrification kind of fizzled out in the early 90s, so the neighborhood is mixed: Sadly, The Gap replaced The Saint on Second Ave, but the Alpha Aves and Tompkins Park are unchanged. Viva Wigstock!
We at Rent-Direct.com know why the East Village calls to the nonconformist, and we know the landlords who know what it's like to be young and just starting out in New York. We'll work with you if you need a guarantor (co-signer) for your lease, and we'll help you present your strongest rental application.
To the south, Little Italy, Chinatown and the Lower East Side present some of the most culturally defined immigrant neighborhoods in the city, resulting in a very eclectic social mix. Most housing in these neighborhoods is found in walk-up buildings, and a few commercial buildings are being converted to loft apartments, although not as grand as those in SoHo and Tribeca.
