I wonder if any of our underground cities have so much as single decent restaurant within them. Or any interesting stores for that matter (not counting the malls connected to them). It seems like there should be something cool tucked away in some hidden corner of these labyrinthine complexes, but then rent is usually too high for Mom & Pops and the space not desirable enough for higher-end businesses, so probably not.
I've never been a fan of PATH but I've been using it a lot this winter. I still have to go outside to get home and to school, but otherwise I've been doing most of my shopping at least in PATH connected places. Judging by the crowds I don't seem to be the only one with that idea either. Traditional high street retailers must be suffering this season. And as someone who loves to walk, it's also been good at serving that purpose while the cold is too severe to be outside. That is, at least until it gets up to the odd balmy -5° like today. It was a lovely treat to not feel like I was about to die as soon as I stepped out the door.
