This Orchard Street hat shop has been run by a Greek emigre named Mr. Aristotle for over four decades. It's a very tiny storefront, crammed full of hats, with barely enough room for the proprietor himself. It seemed to be doing fairly steady business the day I sat and drew it, including an Australian man who visits the shop every time he's in the U.S. Nonetheless, it's hard to imagine that this store and businesses like it will be found in the area for much longer.
Also, this is surely the most hats I've ever drawn at once, maybe more than I've ever drawn cumulatively!
