NYC parks have been devastated by Hurricane Sandy -- trees down, historic carousels damaged, etc. Anybody who's ever visited Central Park, High Line, Prospect Park knows how precious and valuable these urban green spaces are. Help the recovery by donating directly to the public-private partnerships that support our NYC parks. List and links here -- http://www.nyconthecheap.com/2012/11/help-nyc-parks-damaged-by-sandy/

Now on our blog: the Orthodoz Jewish food & feel of Boro Park, Brooklyn.
Patagonia has been in that area from eons. Much has to do with large inexpensive rental space per sqft than in mid town or UES etc. In terms of foot falls. Demographics rather than High Income is more important, because Income levels in UWS and UES are way above the area surrounding Prince, Wooster, W Broadway.
Soho=high income. High income people tend to be outdoorsy and participate in expensive outdoor pursuits. Probably why Tents & Trails survives downtown. Plus, there is more room for bigger stores like that new REI store. Icebreaker also has a store in the strip with Zadig & Voltaire in the Meatpacking district (talk about weird placement) but they must have done research before picking that location.
Yesterday at Icebreaker, which sells fine wool sporting wear, I realized that Patagonia and Northface are also on this stretch of Wooster Street, and just a couple of blocks away are EMS and REI. Is it just me, or is Soho an odd part of Manhattan to have become the center of outdoor adventure gear?
A lot of the Chinese from Chinatown (as well as most recent Chinese immigrants) have been moving to the growing Chinatowns in Flushing, Sunset Park, and Elmhurst in the outer boroughs. This probably leaves more openings for other Asian immigrants to move in to the original Chinatown.
Many of the restaurants of non-chinese cuisine might feel that they need to introduce the clientele at large to their cuisine ?
