If you're a girl, you probably want to go here. This store gets a little busy, so also try the Union Square location which has a big range. Many other chain-stores are on Broadway (fast fashion like Zara/H&M/Forever 21/Uniqlo plus Bloomingdale's department store)

Parks & Nature
Pretty fountain, always buskers/live acts to watch, lots of sunbathing in the summertime. Note -- although it's a little further, it's much nicer to hang here than Tompkin's Square.
