13th St Between 4th Ave and University Pl
With the formidable rear-end of Best Buy and the Union Square Regal Cinema taking up the entire northern side of this street, there isn't much to observe here. However thanks to the aforementioned theater, many people spend plenty of time mulling around this block. I know I've probably spent several hours of my life here either waiting for a movie, or hanging around after a show while the crowds empty out into the night. The surrounding blocks have plenty to offer in terms of food and drink, but none of them appear to have discovered this segment.
The corner of Broadway is home to Forbidden Planet – a veritable mecca for comic book fans. Though, from what I've heard it's apparently nothing when compared to its UK-based cousin. Continuing down the street you're still faced with an unwaveringly bland wall (this time belonging to Whole Foods) followed by a few small storefronts before University Place.
