Walking around Soho is awesome. It's a great little part of New York. Note: No matter how tempted you are to do it... DO NOT ask people "How to get to Sesame Street" - it was only funny when I did it.
Play chess at the many chesstables here. Nice canopy of trees, tho terribly busy street. Needs flowers for better haven of peace effect. Transient mix. Peripheral benches OK, but avoids best Park view
