Having walked the length of the High Line in the morning we ended up in West Village, our daughters wanted to see the apartment buildings featured in Friends and Sex in the City which were found easily and quickly thanks to google maps. As it was just before Christmas many places were decoratedgiving the place an even better feel, it was also rather quiet which made for a nice relaxing walk and the opportunity to get a few photo's.

The residential architecture with colonial brownstones is the side of New York City you see in movies and TV. There is also interesting history like the Stonewall Inn riots. When you need a break, Washington Square Park is a wonderful spot for people watching.…
