SoHo
Ultra-luxe eateries with a stylish crowd
From classic NYC mainstays like Balthazar and Fanelli Cafe to chic newcomers like Principe and design-forward spots like La Mercerie, SoHo is home to some of the city’s best restaurants. For casual fare, Ruby’s serves up Australian dishes for a hip crowd, while Yubu offers Korean small bites. Expect longer-than-average wait times at the trendier, scene-y spots. In the evening, stylish crowds gather at elevated hotel bars like The Crosby and SoHo Grand, among others. Bodegas and smaller grocery stores include Sunrise Mart, a Japanese market that offers yummy prepared dishes and Mulberry Market. There’s also a Target Grocery on Broadway and a Whole Foods near Bowery.High-end luxury brands and boutiques mingled with artisanal pop-ups
What was once a working-class, artist-centric neighborhood has become a busy tourist destination due to the retail boom along Broadway. Everything from Madewell and Prada, to Zara and Bloomingdale’s have anchored the neighborhood as a prime retail location. Along Greene and Mercer Streets, high-end shops like Louis Vuitton lend an air of exclusivity. But the area’s once-humble, artistic roots have not been entirely eclipsed by brand names, and there’s still a distinctly local, creative energy found in the smaller pop-ups and artisanal shops.Open floor plans with high ceilings and hefty price tags
The current market consists of both co-ops and condos, but there’s limited inventory in both sectors. “If the property is turnkey or has something special like outdoor space, it goes very quickly,” Hechter says. A prewar loft-studio can go for as low as $550,000, but most one-bedroom condos typically start at $1.3 million and up. Two-bedrooms average around $3.7 million, but can easily extend up to $30 million. “If you’re coming to SoHo, your general wish list is going to include that great room with open, airy, and high ceilings,” adds Hechter. That said, there aren’t many traditional, multi-room floor plans in SoHo. Although the majority of the area consists of historic buildings, there are some newer condo developments in the area with modern glass-facades, like 110 Charlton, a French Industrial-inspired condominium at the crossroads of SoHo, Tribeca and the West Village. Other notable, newer builds include 10 Sullivan, designed by famed architect Cary Tamarkin, and 565 Broome Street, a luxury high-rise condominium designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Renzo Piano.Walkable neighborhood with several transit options
There are plenty of ways to get around via public transit in the neighborhood, including the N or R train at Prince Street, the B, D or F train at Broadway-Lafayette Street, the 4 or 6 train at Spring Street, A, C or E train at Spring Street. FDR Drive is accessible via Houston Street.Top-rated schools nearby
There are no public schools in SoHo proper, however several schools surround the area: In nearby West Village, P.S. 3 is an A-rated elementary school on Niche, and in the Flatiron District, the Clinton School is a top-rated middle and high school with a globally-recognized honors program. In Chinatown, M.S. 131 is also highly-rated and has a Chinese Dual Language program, while NYC Lab High School for Collaborative Studies in Chelsea offers a humanistic curriculum.
