UK in NY

Union Jack flies at British bastions like Myers of Keswick on Hudson Street.

New York's British community came to watch soccer at Nevada Smith's, a
popular Anglo-haven on the edge of the East Village.

Camilla Hellman, president of the British Memorial Garden, which is being built in
Lower Manhattan to commemorate British victims of 9/11. Ms. Hellman had
popped by the offices of the St. George's Society, one of New York's oldest
British institutions, which was founded in 1770 to help the poor and whose walls
are decorated with framed letters from the Royal Family.
