On the lower west side of Manhattan old factories are being given new life as offices, loft apartments, and markets.

One of the coolest is the old Northern Biscuit (later known as Nanisco)”. It has been converted into the Chelsea Market. Filled with restaurants and cool little shops.

My favorite was a spice shop. I stood at the counter and just inhaled.
