http://www.abercrombie.com Abercrombie specializes in faux vintage clothing for sporty, all-American (read: white) boys and girls. The men's clothes are cut generously to accommodate the gym-built physique while the women's clothes are sweet and Nantucket-ready. There's also a whole selection of obnoxious T-shirts for both sexes. The South Street Seaport location is their only store in Manhattan, and on any given afternoon you'll find teens from the outer boroughs and muscle boys from Chelsea, rubbing elbows as they peruse the racks.

A couple blocks from City Hall, Anne Street has a typical array of sex-friendly videos and gadgets. More >>
http://www.borders.com/online/store/Home Though 12,000-stores strong, Borders manages to maintain a thin, very thin semblance of neighborhood accessibilityaat least more than its rival, B&N. Book selections are carefully tailored for location, chairs and couches encourage lingering, and newly installed computers allow customers to look up titles themselves. More >>
http://www.brookstone.com Vying with the Sharper Image and Hammacher Schlemmer for the title of Most Expensive and Useless Electronics-Inspired Gift Shop Ever, Brookstone trades in intriguing items that you really, really don't need. How about a talking remote thermometer ($75) or a talking picture frame ($45)? Or perhaps you'd like an alarm clock that plays bird chirps ($175) or a lighted nose/ear trimmer ($50)? More >>
http://www.c21stores.com This is a traditional department store in all but one respect: Century 21 is famed far and wide for its extensive, ever-rotating selection of deeply discounted (read: unwanted, and often uncool) high-end designer merchandise. While this is a great place to pick up tube socks or an inexpensive belt, most shoppers are fighting over last season's unsold follies. If you're hoping to score something to impress your friends, be patient: Dressing rooms are a disaster, racks are disorganized, the staff is distracted, and the competition is fierce. Not a fashion victim? There's a nice selection of housewares in the basement. More >>
A two-story supermarket of porn and genitalia-shaped household objects (such as pans, back scrubbers, soap). More >>
http://www.guess.com If you're a teenager or on a budget or both, Guess slavishly regurgitates the cheesiest of the trends for your consumption. A note to the guys, though: Guess who looks good in their menswear? Not you. More >>
http://www.jcrew.com/index.jsp The air smells crisp and the leaves are changing colors, a sure sign that itas time to hit J. Crew and buy yet another roll-neck sweater. A chain that has outfitted all of Connecticut and much of the Midwest, J. Crew serves up the basics: plain-front pants, button-down shirts, practical belts and shoes, staid swimsuits, and hordes of striped sweaters. The look is natural and appealing, sometimes borderline boring. More >>
http://store.metmuseum.org With an overall theme of pristine WASP-iness (see the aUnicorn Tiea or aOyster Bay Neckerchiefa), the Met Museum shop is full of aesthetically pleasing, hand-chosen Motheras and Fatheras Day gifts. More >>
http://www.mysteriousbookshop.com Mysterious Bookshop is one of the oldest bookstores in America to specialize in mysteriesaalso, crime, suspense, espionage, and detective fiction. An old iron spiral staircase connects the bottom floor (all paperbacks) to the top floor (hardcovers, rare prints, and signed editions). More >>

http://www.sharperimage.com With a large array of electronic items to try out (no one cares if you're actually serious about buying the massage chair!), Sharper Image is a good place to go when you want something but havenat yet figured out what it is. More >>
Historic ships and a shopping mall, who could ask for anything more? Well, there is much more! The Seaport serves as a stage for many free performances, great food, and the starting point for some exciting boat tours. More >>
http://www.staples.com Like its rivals OfficeMax and Office Depot, Staples is a bland, utilitarian big-box supply store that stocks a bewildering array of reasonably-priced merchandise, from scissors to scanners. Tip: they sometimes have ridiculous deals on CD-Rs, so snap up a spindle of 50 or 100 the next time you're there. The furniture section is mostly tacky particle-board-and-veneer modular stuff and ugly 1970s metal filing cabinets, but they do the job if you're in a pinch. More >>
