SoHo seems like it's getting overrun by chain stores - any other hip areas to live/shop?

BIllyburg - Williamsburg Brooklyn, DUMBO, etc are still very hip, trnedy, young and not engulfed by the mainstream "big box" machine.

I would also seriously consider Coney Island, the amount of Dollars going into the BEACH FRONT, area in NYC is crazy. They are putting a hotel, amusement park, and bringing it back to it's hey day! Believe me, in 2-3 years people will say how they should have gotten into Coney Island earlier....

It may already be too late! Check the link.

FIRST ANSWER
The Financial District is now becoming the urban professionals playground. The chain stores are coming in but not to the point that SoHo is at. NY Times has dubed the Financial District the new 5th Ave.
