Nolita is an extremely small prewar walk-up apartments - some not even fitting queen-size beds. Lot's of smoking (literally) Euros on the street. Rice-to-Riches (the 31 flavors of rice pudding). Lombardi's. Public. Close to SoHo, Bowery, Chinatown & Li'l Italy. The 6 subway line is what you use for the neighborhood of Nolita. Finally, the neighborhood has ridiculously expensive rents. As does most of the City.
