Stores in Soho are hundreds. Big, small, and very small. Famous designers and brands, and aspiring designers. The official boundaries of SoHo are from Houston street to Canal street.

Soho is much more peaceful, with fewer people and less fuss than Times Square or Fifth Avenue closer to Central Park, and to be in Soho, I must say, more pleasant. New York is different there. Even if you’re not planning on doing a lot of shopping, go to Soho just for a walk.


You need the following streets: Crosby Street, Broadway, Mercer Street, Greene Street, Wooster Street, West Broadway, Thompson Street, Sullivan Street, as well as Prince Street, Spring Street, Broome Street, and Grand Street.

The nearest subway stops are Prince Street, Spring Street, Broadway-Lafayette, Canal Street.

What’s important to know is that the main shopping street is SoHo Broadway, but you’ll find the big brand stores there. If you go from Broadway to the neighboring streets, there will be a variety of small shops, both renowned and beginning designers, with very interesting things, shoes, and accessories.
