The NoHo Historic District, is a landmarked, primarily residential neighborhood in Manhattan, which comprises approximately 125 buildings. This area represents the period of New York City's commercial history from the early 1850s to the 1910s, when this section prospered as one of its major retail and wholesale dry goods centers. Acclaimed architects were commissioned to design ornate store and loft buildings in popular architectural styles.

After WWII, manufacturing companies moved out of New York City and to the suburbs. These spaces were rented to artists and small theatre companies, and by 1960, there were more artist residents than businesses in these loft spaces. Among the famous artist residents were, Robert Mapplethorpe, Chuck Close, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Andy Warhol. As artists began to rent lofts in the neighborhood in the 1970s and 1980s, the name NoHo came into use to distinguish it from nearby SoHo. 

Since NoHo is primarily made up of loft apartments, this in turn makes it one of the most expensive and desirable neighborhoods in Manhattan.
