NEW KID ON THE BLOCK: MY LITTLE SUNSHINE
Two and a half years after the first My Little Sunshine opened in Chelsea, the kids’ store and hair salon opened a second location in Tribeca. Take a look around.
INTRODUCING FIRST-TIME TUESDAYS!
We all need to force ourselves outside of our comfort zones—so I’ve decided that we shall celebrate April with a series of First-Time Tuesdays. The idea is that every Tuesday, or at least one Tuesday in April, you’ll go somewhere you’ve never been (and report back about the experience). Personally, I’m going to Ninja.
REAL ESTATE SALES REPORT
These are the properties whose sales were “recorded” by the city in the past seven days (ending 3/30/13)—the sales may have taken place earlier. There’s a lot of 250 West in this week’s report.
