Or, you may have the time to read this entire book, but find all the possibilities overwhelming. It’s also possible that you won’t be overwhelmed by the information in this book, but find that when you actually get to New York City, you get confused just trying to figure out which way is uptown and which is down- town, let alone trying to find a specific shop in NoLita. To combat the above problems, I have created this at-a-glance chapter to help you get started quickly and easily by using these pages as a handy tip sheet. This chapter features some easy- to-locate shops where you can find what you need if you’re short on time. Each store mentioned here is explained in greater depth in later chapters, and there are plenty more shops discussed inside. Addresses in all listings are given with cross streets so that you can find your destination more easily. When taking a taxi, tell the driver the cross streets as soon as you get in the car so there is no confusion.
