- When the film Miricle on 34th Street was made, Macy's and
- Gimbles were about the ONLY stores of their kind in NY, or
- anywhere else for that matter. Back then, 34th street had
- some meaning because of Macy's. Now New Yorkers know it
- more as where Madison Sq. Garden resides, along with the
- herald square mall and other shopping areas.
-
- Coming from Berkeley, I take your "who cares about New
- York City anyhow" with the proper degree of respect. I mean,
- who cares what comes out of California!!! The only culture there
- is in the yogurt (to paraphrase a favorite east-coast lament).
