Not really a forum to discuss municipal geography, but I was born and bred
on Manhattan Island(referred to as New York City), on 6th Street, between
1st and 2nd Avenues.

Go back there every year to visit family and do some hunting on some upstate
property.

So I can attest to the slight discrepancies in your location descriptions.
Sounds like you maybe got them out of a book, or Google!<bg

SoHo in New York City means South of Houston (as in Houston Street).
It is somewhat to the north of Little Italy and to the north and west
of the Lower East Side.

The East Village is north of both SoHo, the Lower East Side, and
Little Italy...

Grew up on the "Lower East Side", next to "Little Italy", in what I
believe
they now call SoHo (*nothing* like London's).
My old neighborhood is now the VILLAGE EAST.

Believe me, those motion pictures are pretty accurate!

It's a "goodfellas" term.
