Colony Music Center
New York
This long-lived Theater District shop ("since 1948") is housed in the legendary Brill Building, the Tin Pan Alley of 1950s and 1960s pop, where such songwriters as Leiber and Stoller and producers such as Don Kirshner and Phil Spector crafted the soundtrack for a generation.

You'll find a great collection of Broadway scores and cast recordings; decades worth of recordings by pop song stylists both legendary and obscure; the city's best collection of sheet music (including some hard-to-find international stuff); and a great selection of original theater and movie posters.This long-lived Theater District shop ("since 1948") is housed in

DiPalo's Dairy
New York
Before there was Mario Batali, before Danny Meyer, or Daniel Boulud, there was Louie DiPalo, a true New York food celebrity if there ever was one. But thankfully, Louie won't be hosting any food shows anytime soon. He's too busy behind the counter of his 1910-originated, family-run store, putting together packages of the best and hardest to find Italian cheeses around for some of the city's most acclaimed restaurants and chefs. But you don't have to be a chef to enjoy DiPalo's; you just need a little patience -- lines can get long and Louie and his staff will take their time with your order. The tiny store is one of the last authentic Italian vestiges in the now tacky and overly gentrified neighborhood of Little Italy.Before there was Mario Batali, before Danny Meyer, or Daniel

The A-line styles look a bit droopy on shorter women, but otherwise suit all figure types well. The superior quality, fabrics, and style make these clothes worth every penny. The beautifully austere SoHo location is Fisher's prime showcase. The semiannual consolidation sales, in March and August, are a bargain hunter's delight. Note that only the SoHo flagship sells the complete line, including both the petite and women's collections. The closet-size East 9th Street location basically functions as an outlet store, with lots of sale merchandise and seconds on hand.Making their way around the nation in her own shops
