Lower East Side, Manhattan, New York

Gothamist have uploaded some amazing photos from the 1930's and 1940's. One of the great ways to learn more about the Lower East Side is to visit the wonderful Tenement Museum on Orchard St. You can see my review on Tripadvisor here.

Marc Jacobs SoHo Store Vandalized.

The terrific Marc Jacobs store on Mercer Street near West Houston has been vandalized with graffiti. This store is one of my favourites in SoHo. It has a great selection of mens and women's clothing. I picked up a pair of black waxed denim jeans for a bargain price of $88US.
