New York, New York

History:

NOHO and the NoHo Historic District, with a name derived from "NOrth of HOuston Street," extends north from Houston Street to East 9th Street, and east from Broadway and Mercer Street to Bowery and the west side of Cooper Square. Artists began occupying the area's loft buildings in the 1970s and 1980s and the name "NoHo" came into use to distinguish it from SoHo, the adjacent neighborhood to its south. Previously, NoHo, SoHo, and the eastern part of Tribeca were known collectively as the "warehouse district." Broadway, which traverses the NoHo Historic District from south to north, historically defined the area's architectural character and served as the impetus for the development of its surrounding streets. Houston Street, which was widened in 1920, divides NoHo from the SoHo neighborhood to the south. The NoHo Historic District's approximately 125 buildings represent the period of New York City's commercial history from the early 1850s to the 1910s, when this area prospered as one of its major retail and wholesale dry goods centers.

 
Happenings:

NOHO is now known, paradoxically,  as one of the hippest yet laid back areas in Manhattan. Featuring some of the City's most trendsetting boutiques and restaurants, NOHO has managed to attract a wide range of sophisticated residents who appreciate the best the City has to offer without the crush of tourists that define other neighborhoods.
 
Some of the most exciting happenings in NOHO include the construction of a multi faceted commercial and residential complex on the Bowery and Houston Street totalling approximately 750,000 square feet projected to be completed in 2006 by Avalon Bay Communities, a national REIT. The Opal Lounge, at 199 Bowery (Spring Street) will be a 19,000 square foot restaurant designed by the prominent restaurant architect Larry Bogdanow. Capitale , located at 130 Bowery, is one of downtown Manhattan's hottest restaurants www.capitaleny.com. The Bowery Ball will celebrate the New Museum of Contemporary Art's recently announced plans to build a new 60,000 square foot facility at 235 Bowery (at the beginning of Prince Street). The new facility will double the size of the current 583 Broadway facility, and is just two blocks from the location of the Bowery Ball. Plans are in motion to create a East Fourth Street Cultural District for more than 12 arts organizations including the New York Theatre Workshop.
