 Nolita, New York City, NY   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Nolita is a neighborhood in New York City that didn’t really exist until not too long ago, and now that it does, no one seems to know exactly what it means or just where it might be.
For shoppers, Nolita features boutiques set to rival its primped and over-confident neighbor, SoHo--many of which are considered hipper and more on the edge of fashion than the bastions of couture to the west.
The commercial space of Nolita is gobbled up by the young jet-set as well; you’ll find a tremendous number of ground floor boutiques, as well as upper story tech firms, graphic design studios, and programmer’s suites.

I was in New York City most of August, staying at my son's apartment at Prince and Mott streets in Nolita, Lower Manhattan.
Noguchi, who died at 84 in 1988, could never have known when he chose this industrial site, first for a studio and then for a permanent display of his works, that it would be Queens' destiny to become, at least for a time, the center of the universe for modern art.

 RollingStone.com: Nolita : Keren Ann : Review
Born in Israel to a Russian-Israeli father and Dutch-Japanese mother, raised in Paris and now living in the Manhattan neighborhood from which this album takes its title, Keren Ann Zeidel creates bilingual chamber pop that suggests French Sixties chanteuse Franbroise Hardy whispering ballads from the first Velvet Underground album.
Like her 2004 English-language debut, Not Going Anywhere, and her previous French disques, Keren Ann's fourth album overflows with slow-burning melancholy articulated by understated arrangements and the singer's withdrawn but emotionally precise hum of a voice.
Despite its clear and unashamed reference points, Nolita's delicate purr is pure 2005: not the carefree soft rock of your parents but a less mainstream, more urbane and moody variant.

 Martian robots take orders from Manhattan | ajc.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
NEW YORK — These days, when one of NASA's rovers drills a hole in a rock on Mars some 200 million miles away, the commands come from Lower Manhattan, from a second-floor office on Elizabeth Street, surrounded by dusted-off tenements.
Now its old storefronts are of-the-moment restaurants and stores, and the only trace of the neighborhood's immigrant past is in its name: NoLIta, North of Little Italy.
So two decades ago, when he was a mechanical engineering graduate student at Columbia, he set up his robotics shop in Manhattan, first on the Lower East Side on Ludlow Street, then, five years later, moving to the current location on Elizabeth, a former electrical power substation built in 1922.

This section of Manhattan, known as the Lower East Side, is rich in history, not to mention trendy restaurants, but often gets overlooked by city visitors.

This investment offers an extremely rare opportunity to acquire the development rights for an “as-of-right”, high-rise residential apartment building (building height not to exceed 232 feet), consisting of approximately 252 apartments (192,000 square feet of zoning floor area), in NoLita, perhaps the most desirable of the fashionable edge neighborhoods in Manhattan.
The ability to develop a residential rental property of significant scale in NoLita is well timed.
This Property is located at the southeast corner of Ludlow and East Houston Streets (across from Katz’s Delicatessen) in Manhattan’s NoLita neighborhood (“North of Little Italy”).

But time has a way of casting a rosy glow over humble beginnings-- especially when you look back at them from the top of the heap, which is where Feith, a Sherman-born and Dallas-bred fashion designer, sits.
After years of stumbling, the 38-year-old Feith has risen from his seat at sewing machines in Dallas factories to a trendier address in Manhattan's Nolita district.
In addition to his shop nestled among the trendy patisseries and cosmetics stores in the Nolita district, on Memorial Day weekend Feith began selling his clothes out of a refurbished barn in the resort town of East Hampton, New York.

In the area surrounding Smith Street, a fledgling urban revival had taken hold in the late sixties, led primarily by hippies who were lured from Manhattan by the low cost of renting or buying three- and four-story brick town houses and Greek Revival and Italianate brownstones.
The old-world elements that endure—the remaining social clubs that spill flamenco music out their doors, the Latino men flipping dominoes at card tables, the Italians playing boccie in Carroll Park, the Yemeni kids tossing pebbles on game boards spray-painted onto the sidewalk—are respected by the newcomers.
For a while last year, there was fearful talk among store owners that what had happened in Manhattan's Nolita neighborhood—a thorough transformation from ethnic to cool chic, with a prevailing competitive attitude—might happen here.
