Walking back from my therapy appointment on 11th Street, I got to stop in all my favorite shops on Fifth Avenue to see what they had to offer in the way of holiday gifts. What a bounty!
As you’ll see, Fifth Avenue between 10th and Union Street has it all. From the Pink Pussycat to Tip Top Gifts, it’s a holiday wonderland.
