Sights
Prada Soho
A half-pipe-like zebrawood floor and voyeur-friendly changing rooms make this flagship a Koolhaas classic. 575 Broadway
Moss
Murray Moss’s original shrine to design is like a museum of avant works sans the price of admission. 150 Greene St
Ralph Lauren
He hails from the Bronx (born Ralph Lifschitz, yo), but his 1890s mansion-cum-boutique exudes UES splendor via Baccarat chandeliers, Persian rugs and a hand-carved staircase. 867 Madison Ave
Blights
OMG
This discount chainlet plagues Broadway with a rash of random teenybopper streetwear lines that induces us to scream its name.
Best Buy
Electronics can be sexy. Too bad this bland big-box tech store didn’t get the memo.
Loehmann’s
Sure, the bargains are excellent at this discount chain’s Chelsea outpost, but the rat’s-nest-like digs, overcrowded racks and the sometimes surly customer service make us shudder. 101 Seventh Ave South
