OPENINGS AND CLOSINGS
••• As Babylicious’s Carol Adams watched her customers—or rather, their kids—grow up, the name Babylicious no longer seemed to fit. So she has reinvented the shop as Torly Kid: “I asked myself, ‘Do I shut down or change?'” With a hugely tall giraffe-print dressing room as its centerpiece—and much more stock—the shop looks better than ever.
••• Franklin Café put up a sign; maybe it will open this week.
••• Amanzi brewed its last cup.

DON’T THINK! JUST DO IT!
If you’re a fan of Tribeca Citizen on Facebook—and if you’re not, why not?—please log on to Facebook right now, go to Tribeca Citizen’s page, look for “Suggest to Friends” (that capital F is very Quaker!) on the left, and click on it. You can then choose whom you’ll recommend Tribeca Citizen to. I need to get the word out to Tribecans, and your doing this will really help. ¡Gracias!

BUZZER 22
“After over 10 years of designing loft interiors in Tribeca, I’ve found that a common problem seems to be a lack of space,” says interior designer Ghislaine Viñas in her new exclusive-to-TC column, Buzzer 22. “One solution is to look upward.” For proof, check out the pix of the apartment she designed for Downtown Dance Factory’s Hanne Larsen.

EVERYONE LOVES A BARGAIN
••• Thirty bucks off massages this week.
••• Kids clothes on sale for as little as $10.
••• The Fountain Pen Hospital opened an online shop called the Back Room, selling pens from the 1970s on, and sold most of the inventory in days.

NEIGHBORHOOD UPDATES
••• A new book on espionage, edited by Mysterious Bookshop’s Otto Penzler, is coming soon. Click here for info on the special edition that would be perfect for Father’s Day. (Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to say, “I wrote the book on espionage”?)
••• Borbay finished his Tribeca Grand painting.
••• Video from the Manhattan Children’s Theatre’s new production of The Velveteen Rabbit.

COMING UP
••• Tonight: events at Pen Parentis, Mysterious Bookshop, Barnes & Noble, Tribeca Cinemas, and Maslow 6.
••• A week of women and wine! (No, not like that.)
••• More wine: Maslow 6’s new Foundations of Wine course: six classes for $300, or à la carte for $60 each.
••• Morimoto will be hosting a karaoke-and-sake party somewhere in Tribeca.
••• Additions to 92YTribeca’s schedule: lotsa laffs.

THE PUG KNOWS
I thought it’d be fun to take a photo and see if anyone can guess where it was shot. But I’m warning you: If no one guesses, I’m not going to run any more pix of fire hydrants (and I have them!). Oh, you’ll be sorry then!
