7. A New Frontier | 3 p.m.
7. 新前沿|下午3點
In hilly Sevier Park, picnickers in fashion-sweats settle in for the afternoon, while stroller-pushing mothers amble shoulder to shoulder, and plaid-and-denim-clad men throw balls for their rescue dogs. Here’s a chance to walk among the locals who staked a claim to the 12 South neighborhood well before the current boom. A pioneer on 12th Avenue South, Imogene + Willie, opened in 2009 in an old gas station selling meticulously made jeans and has grown into a cool emporium with a branch in Portland, Ore. The avenue is now lined with independent businesses like Savant Vintage (packed to the gills with frocks, clutches, tumblers, and the like), Las Paletas unusually flavored ice pops ($2.50), Holly Williams’s nouveau general store White’s Mercantile, and Judith Bright, a jeweler that recently moved from Green Hills, where Ann Patchett opened Parnassus Books, drawing a crowd that’s equal parts Berkeley and Bridgehampton.
在崎嶇的塞維爾公園(Sevier Park)，身穿時尚運動服的游客選好了地點，開始準備下午的野餐，推著嬰兒車的母親在并肩漫步，身穿格子花呢與丹寧衣褲的男子帶狗玩著拋接球游戲。這是在本地人群中穿行的好機會。很久之前本地還不繁榮的時候，他們就在南部12個街區安居樂業了。南12大道上的潮流先鋒是“伊莫金和威利”(Imogene + Willie)牛仔店。2009年，它在一座昔日的加油站內開業，出售精制牛仔服，現在已經成長為一座炫酷的商場，在俄勒岡州波特蘭市也開了分店。這條大街現在林立著不少獨立的商鋪，如莎凡特經典（Savant Vintage，塞滿了女裝、手抓包、高腳杯等物品）、口感絕佳的拉斯帕勒塔斯(Las Paletas)冰棍（2.50美元）及霍利·威廉姆斯(Holly Williams)開的“懷特家”(White’s Mercantile)紀念品店。最近珠寶商朱迪·布萊特(Judith Bright)也將店鋪從綠山遷到此地，而作家安·帕切特(Ann Patchett)在那里開了帕納塞斯山書店(Parnassus Books)，吸引的顧客人數可與伯克利和布里奇漢普頓匹敵。
