Main Street America is alive and well, in of all places, New York City.
Walk into any family owned business in New York City and you will find a story waiting to be told. From a pizzeria Frank Sinatra loved so much he had dozens of their pies flown to his home in California, to a shoe factory in SoHo that once made riding boots for the Union Army and the pet shop in Richmond Hill that has a living, breathing fish so old it was born before the moon landing - all are “New York Originals.”
“New York Originals” is a 10 part documentary series profiling mom and pop businesses, craftspersons and local lore that have stood the test of time. By showcasing these one-of-a-kind businesses, the series capitalizes on one of NYC’s greatest characteristics - originality.
In this fast-moving, ever-changing city, the reasons why these shops have stood the test of time are intriguing stories in and of themselves. But it’s not just the shops taking center stage in “New York Originals.” It is the people who run these businesses and the loyal customers who are their lifeblood.
