  • Chapter One the BEST of NEW YORK
    6484-6 Ch01.F 3/25/02 9:06 AM Page 11 Chapter One THE BEST OF NEW YORK I certainly hope that you will be reading every word in this book (and underlining the good parts in pink felt-tip pen), but I under- stand that many people are truly living the New York Minute and are constantly on a mad dash from here to there—unable to spare the time to read this guide from cover to cover. 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.

    Rafael Viñoly The Art of Looking ARCHITECT OF 277 FIFTH AVENUE The first thing you notice is his glasses. One pair perches on his head. Three more dangle around his neck like necklaces. He explains that one pair is for distance; the second is for reading; the third is for looking at the computer; and the fourth is for playing the piano. He is someone who needs to be, in his words, “precise about what I need to look at.” He is wearing a dark blue blazer and a silk tie. He is energetic, tousled, and boyish—anything but formal.
