In the News: Still No Location for New School

••• “More than a year after the Department of Education announced that it has the money for a new 456-seat elementary school in Lower Manhattan, the agency is still struggling to find a place to put it.” —Tribeca Trib

••• Sydney Hollis, writer of the fake Craigslist “bro” ads, has been hired by Details to write in his Collie Barnes persona. As you might expect, his first column (on duck boots) has less Tribeca in it, but there is one good mention.

••• A man in FiDi got robbed twice in one incident. —Tribeca Trib

••• Someone stole a 1982 Petrus valued at $3,500 from Tribeca Wine Merchants. —Tribeca Trib

••• A 31-story hotel is going up at 120 Water Street. It “will be located next to the 26-story Holiday Inn Express at 126 Water Street.” Let’s hope all these crappy hotels have big, flashy signs so we can tell them apart. —The Real Deal

••• If you were among the folks who got free Keurig coffee machines in 2013, you might want to make sure it’s not the model that just got recalled. “Keurig Green Mountain is recalling more than 6.6 million hot beverage-brewing machines in the United States that could overheat liquids and burn users. Keurig says its Mini Plus Brewing Systems, with model number K10, can overheat and spray water during brewing.” —NBC
