How to Get Here

Washington Square Park is the heart of Greenwich Village – located at the base of Fifth Avenue between MacDougal Street and University Place.

Car parking is not available in the park; we encourage public transit and walking.

Washington Square Park is true New York. As a public space located near many subway and bus stops and major institutions, it's a gathering spot for all. Every day is different here, and it's absolutely worth visiting, even if you're just passing through.
