What's the difference between SoHo and NoHo?

SoHo sits south of Houston Street and is the larger, retail-heavier of the two. NoHo sits north of Houston and covers only six blocks between Houston and Astor Place. NoHo's residential buildings skew slightly larger per unit (full-floor lofts are more common) and the foot traffic is meaningfully lower.

§ 01 — About NoHo

The neighborhood

NoHo — North of Houston — is a six-block sliver bounded by Houston Street, Astor Place, Broadway, and the Bowery. Its inventory is dominated by late-19th-century commercial-to-residential loft conversions: cast-iron and masonry buildings with floor-through residences, 11-to-14-foot ceilings, and original column grids.

The neighborhood is smaller and quieter than SoHo or the East Village that frame it. Lafayette Street and Great Jones Street hold most of the retail and dining, including several long-running downtown restaurants. Residential buildings cluster on Bond, Bleecker, and the cross streets.

Transit access is exceptional for a compact neighborhood: Astor Place (6), Broadway-Lafayette (B/D/F/M), and Bleecker (6) are all within three blocks of nearly any NoHo address.
