If you're new to NYC and ready to shop, go to where the models are - check out bustling Broadway and West Broadway in Soho for a long strip of shopping opportunities. South of Houston Street (that's where the neighborhood SoHo got its name) the stores begin, with something for everyone - for the yuppie/chic but affordable crowd: Banana Republic, Armani Exchange, J. Crew, Prada (coming soon) and more... for the young and trendy, stores offering urban & hiphop styles, such as Canal Jeans and Rat Bastard, as well as Old Navy, Eddie Bauer, and the list just goes on... 3 blocks west on the somewhat calmer West Broadway, you'll find Diesel and slightly higher prices. For less mainstream, slightly hipper clothing, many small stores exist on the nearby Greene, Mercer, and Lafayette Sts.
Pros: Fun artsy neighborhood
Cons: Slightly pretentious, big crowds, exp. at times
Details: Subway: Take NR to Prince & Bway BDFQ to Bway/Lafayette
