shopping trip to NYC
I plan on taking a shopping trip to NYC. I would like to know the best place to stay. How far is the garment district from the meat packing district? Also, if I take the train from DC, which train station in NYC should I travel to? I am interested in purchasing fabric to design my own clothes, where is the best place to purchase fabric?
