Crap bike lane

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 02:08:54 GMT

MacDougal is all good, but recently the NYC DOT performed one of the worst bike lane implementations ever. The bike lane could make the street safer for cyclists to ride on, but there was no enforcement and no signage put up when the bike lane was painted, and cyclists suffer because of it - now dri...

Peace of mind for the college kids

A street full of shops and food. Every college students dream. I remember going to a vegetarian restaurant on Macdougal 8 years ago. I ordered a chef salad and I will never forget it came in what looked like the biggest bowl ever. And the price was cheap. Macdougal st has many less priced places to...

Nightlife abounds

MacDougal Street is a fantastic place to go once the sun starts going down. Famously home to the folk boom of the 1960's, this street has played host to some of the most famous musicians of the 20th century. Not to be outdone, there are still plenty of great venues for up and coming talent, not to...

MacDougal Street which lies in the heart of Greenwich Village (between W8th and Prince Streets) is an exceptionally lively street which is favored hang out of the NYU student population and local foodies who enjoy the many cheap but delicious eats the street has to offer.
This street which stret...

Stil has the attitude

MacDougal Street is the colorful, living pulse of this area, and most closely resembles the style and attitude that made this and the surrounding streets legendary. It's still a little old-school, and hasn't been entirely taken over by bland NYU buildings nor the bland NYU mentality. I counted three...

MacDougal Street is there in Greenwich Village, it is near to Washington Square Park, and NYU campus is also right here only... Probably this in this street is having many Italian cafes, old-fashned Italian bar.. From this street can get good food for affordable rate.... it is highly suitable for ki...

A history to die for

The story of MacDougal Street is so closely linked to Bob Dylan that anyone who loves the musician needs to spend some time there to get a feel of what the songwriter has encompassed in his life. It was the setting for his meeting with Allen Ginsberg, he lived on the street for a while and had his f...

Cheap food and students

Sun, 01 Feb 2009 22:20:30 GMT

MacDougal Street is one of the streets in the Greenwich Village, close to Washington Square Park. Since NYU campus is right here, there is a good number of cheap places where to eat. My favorite place where to hang out is Cafe Dante. You can find a lot of great Italian cafés in the area but this is...

Serious 24 hour fun!

Sun, 21 Dec 2008 06:57:46 GMT

MacDougal is a nice place for insomniacs. There is always something to do and the nightlife is a large part of the streets charm. The Comedy Cellar is famous for being the stomping ground of some of America's greatest comedians. There are many great places to eat and a number of relaxed cafes. MacDo...

The street that never sleeps

Mon, 21 Jul 2008 13:57:18 GMT

What can I say about the historical McDougal Street, except that it really embodies the spirit of “The City that Never Sleeps.” Although most of the time you will find many NYU students loitering about the various 24hour cafes on McDougal street, it is often home to some of the city’s most colorful...

MacDougal St, Not a Bad place

Fri, 09 May 2008 09:53:24 GMT

After quite a long time I did have an opportunity to visit this street and I found it worth coming. The street was very friendly and had the calm and cool to offer that almost everyone nowadays long for. I liked the service and food at Hummus. This family restaurant I could remember was for its heal...

Bars and Cheap Food

Thu, 01 May 2008 15:24:47 GMT

The food on MacDougal is good and cheap. And so are the bars. Mahmoun's is the place to go for falafel. The comedy bars here are a good alternative to the Times Square fare (including a disparity in annoying advertisers). For a chill place to hang out and wax philosophic and great coffee, check...

Students, Beer, food and atmosphere

Sun, 06 Jan 2008 03:33:40 GMT

A student haven full of cheap restaurants and decent student bars. Avoid ‘Off the Wagon’ like the plague.. There’s a great feel here most nights of the week as NYU is just around the corner. Decent comedy nights downstairs from Olive Garden (can’t rememember the place, I think it’s Comedy Village)....
