6th St Between Ave A and Ave B

Just south of Tompkins Square Park this part of 6th St is quintessential Alphabet City. With the famous Sidewalk Cafe anchoring the corner, a series of smaller restaurants quickly follow, though few seem as popular as the venerable Sidewalk.

My memory (and photos) may be failing me now, but I can't remember one piece of new development along the entire block. It's really refreshing to see an entire street untouched by some bland, modern sore thumb of a building.
