With the prestigious Stuyvesand High School, the not so prestigious BMCC and the new elementary school just 2 blocks away, this makes for a great location for a bookstore. You'll find hoardes of test prep material in the front but they have a generous selection of back issued magazines in the back. Their setup is very simple but they like to keep updated on the material. The owner is very friendly and is more than happy to help you order what you need. You'll always find a deal here, SAT books were about 10% cheaper than leading national bookstores.

If you have ever taken a ride into Chinatown you know that parking is a major concern with 1 hour meters and street cleaning rules all over the place. Most locals just take the plunge and park in a garage. Ludlow Garage is a great alternative. They're always busy but they handle the cars with care. You'll never hear them revving the engines or going for joyrides. Instead I was able to get the mechanic on duty to check out my car when I started hearing noises and he fixed it free of charge , charged me for the parts but that's ok!

I first discovered Models Search America when one of their recruiters stopped me in the middle of the street and asked if I wanted to be a model. I was hesitant but took a business card anyways. When I showed up they were very informative in explaning what they did and how they went about doing it. They were willing to sponsor my pictures but I kindly refused. I recommended a friend of mine and she continues to take modeling jobs and loves it!

I love East Village music store, they aren't cocky as some other guitar stores but very open minded in educating guitar players new and old. The guitars they have in stock are always in perfect condition and at great prices. I got an awesome deal on a Fender that was 20% cheaper than the average price on the internet. They also repair and restore old guitars. Bring in a classic and they'll even offer a trade. Keep it real!

I was shopping for a diamond necklace for Mother's Day and thought this looked like a nice upscale jewelry store by Central Park. Once again I was dead wrong, the owner is a hawk looking to trick as many tourists as she can into buying her wares. But she CHOOSES who to sell the jewelry to, I was wearing casual attire but she thought I couldn't afford anything so she told the sales lady to stop showing me jewelry. I have never been so offended in my life. I made sure I made a scene and convinced 20 other customers to not shop there. I ended up finding the same style necklace for half the price 2 blocks away.

No matter what the occasion, I always make sure I get my flowers from Lenox Hill. I thank Lenox Hill for having surviving such a long lasting relationship with my girlfriend. The flowers are always beautiful and vibrant. The staff always seem to know what to pick out because I obivously have no clue, perfect solution to an upset girlfriend. It's worth the trip, worth the price and i'll be coming here for years to come.

My company had a national conference and we were able to rent out the entire hotel. Only several blocks from Madison Square Garden, Empire State Building and the entire 34th street shopping area, this hotel is in a prime location. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the room service worked very fast even with the requests from the ENTIRE company. The rooms were luxurious and you could throw a party in the bathroom! Plenty of restaurant options in the area and trendy bars to sustain even the wildest lifestyles. The prices were modest and highly recommended for tourists!

There are regular carpeters and there's York Carpet & Upholstery Care. I have been swindled by other carpeters before with hidden fees, extra "labor" when they were clearly stalling and wishy washy jobs with cheap carpet and many loose ends. York was very professional and informed me of everything they did and made sure it was ok with me for all changes to the original plan. The prices are average but the finish was satisfying. Money well spent.

I had just purchased a new home and was trying to add some unique lighting in the house. I took a tour of the lighting district on bowery and found a lot of cool lights. Lighting by Gregory did have a more modern selection and their prices were negotiable. The staff even had installation tips as well as recommend several contractors (they don't work off commission). I ended up installing in myself but their tips were definately helpful in the process.

It's hard trying to find a futon to fit your needs, most futons you find in advertisements are generic and boring. I passed by this futon store while walking on broadway through SoHo and was pleasantly surprised. You'll be amazed at what futons can offer and the great variety of styles there are. Although the prices are a little steep comparably to leather sofas but it definately adds some much needed flair to the living room. If you're shopping for something unique then this is the place for you just be careful of hidden delivery charges.
