Barbara Walters Digs Harvard Square
The Cambridge Chronicle reports that Barbara Walters and the rest of The View have rated Havard Square as the number four shopping destination in the world. Harvard is listed just below Dubai, Brooklyn, and San Marcos, Texas. According to Barbara Corcran, the woman who compiled the list for The View:
"The Square" is renowned for its eclectic collection of small boutiques offering everything from haute couture to the latest in street fashions. Best described as a cross between Greenwich Village New York and Piccadilly Circus in London, you'll find a mix of rocker-types hanging by the newsstands, fashonistas wobbling in high heels, and crunchy types reading under the trees.
Apparently the Barbaras don't realize that Urban Outfitters, CVS, Tower Records, Bank of America, Radio Shack, The Vitamin Shoppe, and countless other multi-national changes can be found in every other city in the United States. If not the world.
Though, they're probably not in Dubai.
