Tribeca and the Duane Park Patisserie


A few days I went to explore Tribeca. It's a strange neighbourhood, because it's right in the middle of a busy downtown area, yet there are the most kid's clothing shops I have seen, and apparently it is a very yummy mummy area. There is a tiny park, Washington Square Park, where they all hang out. I think there are a lot of large lofts, so there's quite a lot of residential space, but I can't imagine having a child round there. Lots of very expensive interiors shops there too - but everything looks the same.


I did find this nice patisserie, Duane Park Patisserie and had a chocolate eclair and an iced coffee. They only have a few tables, old 1950s retro and very nice (the tables, and the chocolate eclair.)
