In February 15th, The Real Deal wrote that Zocdoc is looking for more office space, implying they will be leaving Soho. This morning, I was notified that Zocdoc is “claiming their turf” and a new flag now waves above Broadway and Prince. Zocdoc changed its logo and their new logo is now outside of 568 Broadway.

After learning about Richard Haas’ mural on Prince and Wooster from the NY Times and its importance to Soho, I started thinking about the other pieces of art from the 1970’s and 1980’s around the neighborhood.
