SOHO20, an all-women artists' cooperative gallery founded in 1973, moved in 1996 to its third location, at 545 Broadway. Its name came from its earlier address at 99 Spring Street and an anticipated 20 artist-members. It stayed at 545 Broadway until 2001, when it relocated to West 25th Street in Chelsea.
