Wow, thanks for the link!! So amazing, I just got back from New York, and of course had to visit NoLita!! My sister and I went to Ruby's and Spring Street, and we also found out the place where she filmed part of "Nolita Fairytale", as well as the place where they smashed up the piano at the beginning..we were hoping irrationally to see V, but I guess she was in Arizona then
I agree with Saba, the food at Ruby's is really really good..and also, found it even more awesome cause it's Australian, like I am!
Here's a photo of Spring Street station + Ruby's from the outside (excuse the white circle, I deleted myself from the pic
Also apologies that the pictures are so big..)
If only I'd read this article earlier, I could've had a "Vanessa" day and done all the things on the list
