Greenwich Village, Little Italy, and Chinatown: A Brief Peak
The map doesn't specifically detail the boundaries of neighborhoods like Greenwich Village, Little Italy, and Chinatown. However, generally, Greenwich Village extends from approximately 14th Street down to Houston Street, from Broadway to the Hudson River. The southern boundary can be debated, with some considering it to start at W Houston or Bleecker Street.
Little Italy is typically located near Mott Street and Canal Street, although historically it has been bounded by Lafayette Street to the east, Canal Street to the south, Broome Street to the north, and Bowery to the west. Its boundaries can sometimes blend with those of Chinatown.
Chinatown is generally centralized around Canal Street and Mott Street, with broader boundaries extending from Lafayette Street to the east, the Bowery to the west, Broome Street to the north, and Worth Street (or sometimes Canal Street) to the south. Chinatown often overlaps with Little Italy and other neighborhoods in the area.
