••• A Broadsheet article about the sale of Chelsea Piers’s air rights ends with this: “[Hudson River Park Trust] officials have spoken publicly about the possibility of selling unused air rights from the Park’s Tribeca section to any possible redevelopment of the Borough of Manhattan Community College Campus.” I don’t recall that (which obviously doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened).

••• The news peg in the Jewish Journal‘s profile of Bubby’s owner Ron Silver: “This past May, Silver announced the launch of his new company, Azuca, a line of fast-acting cannabis edibles made from chef-quality ingredients. ‘There have been three constants in my life,’ Silver told me in his loft-style office above the restaurant, decorated with his modernist, Picasso-style paintings, ‘cooking, cannabis use and art.’ […] Silver’s talents—part chef, part creative mind—led him to discover a patent-pending technology that alters the shape of the cannabis molecules and makes them more water-soluble, enabling a more rapid, predictable and controllable effect. Azuca will launch its THC product line and tinctures in Massachusetts (where marijuana is legal) later this month, and offers its hemp-derived, non-psychoactive Cannabidiol (CBD) products at the Bubby’s restaurants in lemonades, coffees, teas and cocktails.” Also, I had no idea that Bubby’s has six locations in Japan.
