[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Georgetown is the best, hands down. Its kind of like Soho, bur nicer. Everything else sucks big time compared to most of Manhattan.[/quote] HahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahHhHah Oh my god I just actually laughed out loud. No Georgetown is very similar to South Street Seaport. Seriously! Soho and Georgetown are as similar as Nancy Reagan and Beyonce. [/quote] SOHO sucks, it's a tourist trap for the most part, only more crowded than Gtown. Gtown is more comparable to West Village as far as residential streets are concerned. [/quote] Some parts of soho are touristy, for sure. Definitely agree with you! But Georgetown is not like the west village. Both have nice rowhouses, but I have lived in both and can confidently say that they are totally different. Again it's very similar to south street seaport. Google it. [/quote] There is more to Georgetown than M street. South Seaport is an outdoor shopping mall with river access, maybe comparable to some extent to commercial parts of Gtown, but there is more to Gtown beyond this. It's a sizable residential neighborhood and parts of it are pretty far from M street and very quiet. Plus, there is a college campus and presence of college students too.[/quote] South street seaport is too small to be comparable to anything. M street in g town is comparable to broadway in soho. NYU is right there as well.[/quote] I'm impressed that you could make so many snap judgments so quickly from your tour bus! Also since you're so certain Georgetown is better than soho, could you do me a huge favor and point me to the fabulous restaurants and museums in Georgetown? Also where are all the fashionistas hiding in GTown? I seem to see the same pasty white chubby folks walking around in quilted jackets, mom jeans, and Michael Kors purses every single time. But I only lived in both, so what do I know? [/quote] SOHO is a tourist hell for the most part. It's full of chain stores and small street vendors with a few independent stores and small designers sprinkled here and there. It's an outdoor shopping mall with all the usual suspects you will find in Tysons or any other suburban mall. There are plenty of the chubby folks walking around in mom jeans and MK purses too, most definitely outnumbering your fashionistas. There are just more faux-hipsters there, if this rocks your world. Anyway, I would not compare it to Gtown, so agree with you, but as far as saying which one is superior, it's a personal taste. I like Gtown more, cleaner, more manageable and not as crowded overall. Plus, the residential streets are beautiful and I like the river front. [/quote]
