Model D TV: The Villages

The Villages — a collection of 10 neighborhoods on the East Side — include the big fancy houses in Indian Village, the riverfront beauties of the Berry Sub, and the fun and funky streets of West Village. The old mansions may be the draw for Sunday drivers, but residents also find high-rise apartments with river views, new lofts and condos, and brand new  single family homes.

This week, Model D TV editor/producer Tom Hendrickson talks with today's residents of these neighborhoods about why the love living there.
