Waverly Place as the northern boundary of Washington Square Park.

Waverly Place is a narrow street in the Greenwich Village section of New York City, in the borough of Manhattan. Waverly changes direction roughly at its midpoint, turning from a north-by-northwest/south-by-southeast street to a northwest/southeast street. At the intersection where this transition occurs, Waverly branches into a Y, creating an intersection of Waverly Place and Waverly Place.

It was named after Sir Walter Scott's novel Waverley in 1833. Its name is used in the Disney series Wizards of Waverly Place, which is set in the neighborhood.
