    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.

  • The Heart of Fifth Avenue Shopping Is Edging to the South by JANE L
    The Heart of Fifth Avenue Shopping Is Edging to the South By JANE L. LEVERE Published: September 4, 2012 Ángel Franco/The New York Times Aritzia, its under-construction storefront painted black, is joining Lacoste at 49th Street and Fifth Avenue. Long the retail stepsister of upper Fifth Avenue, the stretch of the avenue south of 49th Street and north of 42nd Street seems finally to be coming into its own with the opening of several flagship stores by retailers from around the world. The list includes Joe Fresh and Aritzia, two Canadian fashion retailers; Ted Baker London; Tommy Bahama; and an expanded Lacoste. H&M, the Swedish fast-fashion retailer, also announced last month that it planned to open its largest store in the world, a 57,000-square-foot outlet at 48th Street and Fifth Avenue, next fall. Several factors are responsible for this burst of activity. The supply of vacant retail space on Fifth Avenue north of 49th Street is quite limited. What is available, though, is expensive, making it prohibitive for many merchants, especially those that do not sell luxury goods. But “if you are a global name, you need to have a flagship presence on Fifth,” said Lawrence J. Longua, clinical associate professor at the New York University Schack Institute of Real Estate. “Fifth Avenue to New York is like the Champs-Élysées in Paris; it’s the place where you cannot not be.” Some companies have decided that moving down the avenue is a good alternative.

NYC Official Visitor Guide A Letter from the Mayor Dear Friends: As temperatures dip, autumn turns the City’s abundant foliage to brilliant colors, providing a beautiful backdrop to the five boroughs. Neighborhoods like Fort Greene in Brooklyn, Snug Harbor on Staten Island, Long Island City in Queens and Arthur Avenue in the Bronx are rich in the cultural diversity for which the City is famous. Enjoy strolling through these communities as well as among the more than 700 acres of new parkland added in the past decade. Fall also means it is time for favorite holidays. Every October, NYC streets come alive with ghosts, goblins and revelry along Sixth Avenue during Manhattan’s Village Halloween Parade. The pomp and pageantry of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in November make for a high-energy holiday spectacle. And in early December, Rockefeller Center’s signature tree lights up and beckons to the area’s shoppers and ice-skaters. The season also offers plenty of relaxing options for anyone seeking a break from the holiday hustle and bustle.
