Hey, the LES is still fun and gritty. Just don't go out on a weekend night or to any of the new swank restaurants. I don't know. I love living in the LES. My faves:
Barrumundi, slipper room, arlene's grocery, Gus's pickles, Kossar's bagels, Russ + Daughteres, Katz's, tenement buildinsgs, old synagouges/orthodox jewish community, immigrant history, puerto rican neighbors, orchard street, hip-hop shops open until 4am, Chinatown creeping in, Bluestockings feminist bookstore, win 49. I love it.
