Definition
Seventh Avenue, primarily in Manhattan, NYC, is a major thoroughfare, especially noted for its historical connection to the Garment District. It's a hub for the fashion industry, unlike the retail focus of Fifth Avenue. The street is still home to many fashion-related businesses, but also sees theater goers rushing to Broadway shows. Seventh Avenue is a working street, less about display than Fifth Avenue. Think of it as the engine room of fashion, compared to the showroom.
