New York, New YorkI spent a lot of time wandering around this part of New York, with my Dad's Rolliecord, starting when I was about 11 or 12. That would be the very early 1960s. Many things have changed; buildings, the businesses that inhabit them, even streets and small urban parks or squares. But there's a lot of continuity, too. There are many tiny wholesale stores: florists, milliner's, purveyors of ribbons, buckles, thread, bows and buttons—wholesale only. I could swear some of them look just as they did 45 and more years ago.

I agree they never change, I love to see an old tailors shop or a shoe repair with leather and the smell of polish in the air.
