If you are not familiar with Assouline, you are in for a treat. This location is very nice, and they have fantastic gifts and coffee table books, among other things. From Barbie to Picasso, they have something for everybody.
I was able to find an interesting book on American Cities that I sent to my Dad for Father's Day. He loved it, and it certainly isn't something he would have seen at Border's or Barnes and Noble. Everything in this store is completely unique and special. The staff is very friendly. They have a site with online shopping if you find something perfect in the store and want to grab it later. Good stuff all the way around.
