What Greenwich Village does
to a microwave.

More than 50 blocks in its northern and western sections form a city historic district, where owners must keep the main facade during renovation.

Much of the land west of Greenwich Street is landfill, because that street once traced the Hudson River shoreline.

Hurricane Sandy's blackout forced the cancellation of the October 31, 2012, Village Halloween Parade.

Older housing stock

Restored kitchens often hide the microwave in a pantry or a cabinet to keep the period look, and a unit boxed in without the trim kit meant for it overheats and stops mid-cycle until it is given room to breathe.

Apartments and walk-ups

In a small apartment kitchen the microwave hood combination hangs low over the cooking surface to save counter space, and steam from every pot rises into its touchpad and fan, which wear sooner than they would in a bigger room.

Trim kits and drawers

Premium and European microwaves in a specified kitchen take parts that only their makers supply, so the model number is read from the data plate when the visit is booked and the part arrives with the technician.
