Downtown Manhattan . It was founded in 1933 by Walter and Isabel Bryan.

In 2005, in its "123 Reasons Why We Love New York Right Now," New York magazine dubbed The New York Times Reason #51, "because our hometown paper is still the greatest in the world," the magazine said...before adding, #52, on the facing page: "...next to The Villager."
