Jeffrey Kalinsky OWNER, JEFFREY NEW YORK
TRY BESPOKE "I feel funny about promoting a designer we don't carry at Jeffrey, but I am a huge fan of the tailor Thom Browne [17 Little W. 12th St.; 212/633-1197; by appointment only]. Everything he does is made-to-measure, à la Robert Kennedy's look in the sixties. I have a suit, four pairs of pants, and two shirts by him."
GET OUTSIDE "Hudson River Park [www.hudsonriverpark.org], along the West Side Highway, is the best place to walk in all of New York right now. Just being able to see the water was the reason I moved down here in the first place."
KEEP IT REAL "The neighborhood is changing very fast, but I hope the movement to preserve the High Line [www.thehighline.org], an abandoned 1930's elevated railway, will succeed. Also, as much as I can't stand the sight of raw meat, I always want to see those meat packers in their white coats."
EAT SWEETS "The Little Pie Co. [407 W. 14th St.; 212/414-2324; www.littlepiecompany.com] has devotees as far away as North Dakota who come for the miniature treats. My favorite is Mississippi mud pie."
