The people have spoken and the 11th 'Hoodwinked finalist, by an overwhelming margin, is ToeHo. Later today, we'll line up all 11 entries and ask you to pick the big big winner.
Neighborhood: ToeHo
Submitted By: Doug Raboy
Bounderies: The two blocks between TriBeca and SoHo. ?Watts-DeBrosses.
Description: Come on down to lovely ToeHo, where you can pay two, three, even four million dollars to buy a loft-like, 650 sq. ft. 1 bedroom with spectacular views of the Holland Tunnel. Open up those double height windows and inhale the fumes from cars, buses and trucks 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Loaded with all the inconveniences you've always dreamt about, you're just a cab ride away from a Food Emporium with eight foot ceilings and eight week old veggies. Yummy! So desolate, even the Korean Delis close down on weekends. Perfect for empty-nesters, from the upper eastside who want to pretend they're roughing it like artists. See you soon in oh-so fab ToeHo.
