SoHo Walking Tour: From Trendy to Trashy and Back Again
 Like most of the developing city in the early years, SoHo (which stands for South of Houston Street-and by the way, it's pronounced How-ston), started as a small village. Over time, the neighborhood went from the wealthiest, to the most industrial, to a slum called "Hell's 100 acres." Now it is back to trendy again. SoHo is one of the most stylish neighborhoods in NYC, with clues of its past around every corner. Several of its cast iron buildings built in the mid 1800's still stand. As you explore the area, you will get the feel of its many cobblestone streets. When artists arrived in SoHo in the 1970s, they began the revival of the neighborhood. You'll visit two of SoHo's famed art galleries, including the Earth Room. Next to SoHo is NoLIta-which is Northern Little Italy. The area is home to the old St. Patrick's Cathedral. One story in particular your guide will impart is the 1799 murder of Elma Sands, the "Ghost of Spring Street."
