The Village's oldest blocks still follow an 18th-century street layout that predates Manhattan's 1811 grid plan, and its housing spans Greek Revival rowhouses from the 1830s through 19th-century tenements to mid-rise prewar apartments. ## What Greenwich Village does to a home appliance. The Greenwich Village Historic District, designated in 1969, was the city's largest at the time, and later additions such as the 2013 South Village Historic District have kept extending landmark protection over the neighborhood's low-rise character. Downzonings passed in 2005 and 2010 were written specifically to keep new construction at the same low-rise scale as the surrounding 19th-century rowhouses. Like the rest of Lower Manhattan, the neighborhood's electric supply is part of Con Edison's densely underground-cabled grid.
