Product Description
From stilettos to sneakers, ceramics to estate jewelry, The New York Book of Shops covers the best boutiques the city has to offer, from the trendiest to the tiniest and everything in between. In its first incarnation as New York’s 50+ Best Little Shops, this portable guide took shoppers to the city’s best boutiques, secret sources, and insider favorites, neighborhood by neighborhood. This new edition covers all the listings from the original (updated for this edition) plus new features and sidebars, and of course, more shops. There are cafes, tearooms, and bars where weary shoppers can rest their feet; the best tailors, repair shops, and trim stores; bookstores and galleries; and furniture stores. And for shoppers haunted by their attachment to material goods, there are even a few yoga studios. Revised and updated with all-new listings, this is the essential first purchase for anyone—native New Yorker or not—planning a shopping trip in the Big Apple.

review of great shops in the city May 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the new edition of this book. I loved the first so much I had to have the newest one because I didn't want to miss any new shops that had opened since publication of the last edition. I only get to New York once or twice a year so I want to make the most of my time when I am there. The book lists great shops that sell anything from food to jewelry by regions of the city. You can also find out the nearest dry cleaner or shoe repair service in case of an emergency. The author mentions great sites to have a cocktail and take in a breathtaking view of the city. There are sections on the shopping possibilities in the East Village, Soho, Nolita (North of Little Italy), the Village and Meatpacking District, the Lower East Side, the Upper West Side, the Upper East Side, Tribeca, and Brooklyn, in Williamsburg and South Brooklyn. The shops are indexed both alphabetically and by type, so the guide is very easy to use.
