UWS for a relaxing, lunch-with-the-parents day, West Village for a Sunday once in a while, but every other day, the East Village is it; I rarely leave it really. <br /><br />I thought power rangers were over by now. I guess some "greats" will never leave us alone.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01802742232541759535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-18639099255190968772007-01-08T20:50:00.000-05:002007-01-08T20:50:00.000-05:00Those Power Rangers drive me crazy.

I have to confess that I hate the term East Village, mostly because it was coined by greedy real estate brokers trying to sell a neighborhood.<br /><br />Still, someday, when I win the lottery, I'm gonna move there in a flash. I would love to buy the building my dad was born in, at 409 E. 6th, between 1st and A. Who knows, it could happen...Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133620064728357184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-68392103005272335732007-01-07T21:06:00.000-05:002007-01-07T21:06:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.east village idiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02030258480344283688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-25562774437398681652007-01-07T21:05:00.000-05:002007-01-07T21:05:00.000-05:00Hi Michael - I must confess - - Soho has never bee...Hi Michael - I must confess - - Soho has never been my bag. Even Tribeca feels more natural - because it's still a neighborhood. <br /><br />When you get below 5th Street and go west after second avenue - is that still considered East Village? To be honest - I never hung out there because I'm too friggin lazy to walk that far without a reason. I cut through there on my way to Soho on Satureday. Huge amounts of city blocks have been knocked down and replaced with ugly ass modern buildings - and those motherf*ckers are getting closer and closer to my street!east village idiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02030258480344283688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14099114.post-14237566736308467432007-01-06T23:09:00.000-05:002007-01-06T23:09:00.000-05:00Hey E.V.I.

I'll take the East Village any day.<br /><br />Sometimes, SoHo can be a little too "precious" for me.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15133620064728357184noreply@blogger.com
