Welcome to SoHo
((please remember urban caching requires stealth))
I absolutely love urban caching, especially ones where you have to rely on your geosense, which is a great thing in NYC!
In case you didn't know and don't feel like reading everything below, SoHo is short for South of Houston.
Happy Caching!
ps - I love it when gecoaches teach me something so this is for those kindred spirits:
SOHO
SoHo (which stands for South of Houston Street), resides between 6th Avenue and Lafayette Street (to the west and east) and Canal Street and Houston Street (to the south and north). Many of the buildings in this district have cast-iron facades - their columns and collonades lending a classic flair to the neighborhood. Inside these former warehouses there is a wide array of high-fashion stores and upscale dining.
SoHo remains one of the must-visit neighborhoods in New York City.
The neighborhood of SoHo, short for "South of Houston Street," is a vibrant and artistic enclave nestled in lower Manhattan. SoHo is renowned for its cast-iron architecture, characterized by its iconic facades and large loft spaces. Originally an industrial area, the neighborhood experienced a transformation in the 1960s when artists began occupying the spacious yet affordable lofts. Today, SoHo remains a hub for creativity, attracting a diverse range of artists, designers, and galleries. The cobblestone streets are lined with an array of boutiques, high-end retailers, and trendy eateries, making it a popular shopping and dining destination. SoHo is also home to several notable landmarks, including the Haughwout Building, known for its striking cast-iron facade, and the New York City Fire Museum, housed in a former firehouse. With its unique blend of artistic flair, historic architecture, and bustling commercial scene, SoHo continues to captivate both residents and visitors alike.
