rob is right. the UWS is more diverse than soho, UES, and brooklyn heights. you can't get anymore white in those 3 neighborhoods. total suburbanites.

us renters don't exist in the governments eyes. it's all about the "american dream" of being a homeowner.

she is right off broadway many months of the year. 2 years ago she was on broome and last year she moved up to spring or prince. not sure which one. it's a white truck with some red and it's a reddish haired eastern european woman. her soft serve is like crack!

ROB-

the BEST soft serve ice cream truck is a russian or ukranian woman in soho. she is usually on broome, prince or spring near broadway. the ice cream is crazy good.

Posted by: dieselfuel222 at February 4, 2010 4:40 PM in response to Streetlevel: Blue Marble Expanding to Court Street

of course an ice cream shop will thrive in a gentrified neighborhood. the yuppies can fork out $5 for 1 smalll scoop of their all natural ice cream. yay!
