Thanks to you all, I really appreciate your input.
That Chinatown in Flushing Queens seems to be interesting.

Photos which I believe are of NoLita (North of Little Italy) and not of SOHO as I previously mentioned.

This is the exterior wall to the original St. PAtricks which dates to around 1800. The age, in and of itself, is not that old for NY, but what is interesting is that very few Catholics lived in NY (or the US in general) at that time. The Irish were the first group of Catholics to immigrate to the US, and they were soundly discriminated for their religion.

thanks for doing a great job.

Wow! thanks for the great info, I never knew that. In fact, I didn't check what's inside that wall. Have a nice day.

I love this area too, in fact, if ever I'll come back, this is the place I want to stay or close to this area.

It's funny 'cause I don't have a map and I hit these streets by chance.
