Referred to as recently as the 1960s, ‘70s, and ‘80s by the vaguely unattractive (yet loving) nickname "Hell's Hundred Acres,” SoHo, the New York neighborhood "South of Houston" Street, has developed into one of Manhattan's trendiest neighborhoods.
With its diverse and funky shops, its galleries, bars and bistros, SoHo has also been transformed into one of the city's top residential and tourist destinations, which, in turn, feeds the shops, galleries, bars and bistros...which, in turn, raises prices across the board.
Although the high cost of living has forced many of the down-and-out creative types to migrate north-west to Chelsea or south to Tribeca, SoHo does still have more than its fair share of cutting-edge artists and designers rubbing shoulders with über-hip storefronts and beautiful people.
