SoHO during the day

SoHO is the place that you go to shop or window shop, during the day. It is incredibly crowded with tourists and locals, and there's not a lot to do in the evening. Still very charming due to its cast-iron architecture and cobblestone streets, SoHO is now home to a number of high-end stores and expensive lofts. And the sidewalks are crowded with vendors of all sorts of knick-knacks.

The list of stores worth checking is long, but here are a few personal favorites:

Prada (575 Broadway)
Dean & Deluca Cafe (560 Broadway)
Uniqlo (546 Broadway)
Apple Store (103 Prince Street) [The first, the smallest, and the coolest]
Ward Nasse Gallery (178 Prince Street) [I exhibited my photos there]
Taschen Books (107 Greene Street)
MoMA Design Store (81 Spring Street)
Ingo Maurer (89 Grand Street)
