Time Out New York / Issue 628 : Oct 11–17, 2007

Sights & Blights

Storefronts: Blights

How many do you see in a day? Enough to know that they make up a big chunk of the city’s aesthetic landscape. Forget inner beauty: Long live the shops with a pretty face—and fie on those garish others!

1 Dunkin’ Donuts
2 Chain banks
3 Irish pubs
4 Duane Reade
5 Cell-phone stores
Blights 6–10

Buy some fresh green paint, a faux-Gaelic font and a couple of big-screen TVs, and presto! Epcot Ireland, all over NYC! For a true sight, try Blarney Stone (340 Ninth Ave between 29th and 30th Sts, 212-502-4656).

View all of our storefront picks (at least one location) on a Google map.
