••• I’m pretty sure this is about whether to allow residential development on Pier 40: “The Hudson River Park Trust has been working with a task force comprised of elected officials, community boards, and environmental and civic organizations to discuss possible changes to the Hudson River Park Act. We have just scheduled a public meeting to update the general public about these discussions. The meeting will include time for questions and answers, and the public will be able to provide their ideas about how the Park can best meet its financial challenges.

••• Remember: Taste of Tribeca is Saturday! Here’s the list of participating restaurants—love seeing new places like Lotus Blue, Tribeca Tap House, Tre Sorelle, and Super Linda on there. Also: There will be “an exciting raffle sponsored by Sean Turner of Stribling & Associates. 10 lucky winners will receive a $200 gift certificate to the Taste of Tribeca participating restaurant of their choice. Visit the Stribling booth at Taste on Saturday and show your ticket to enter.”
••• Speaking Super Linda: Its take-out taqueria (at the north end) sure looks close to opening….

I promise that the list will never be handed to anyone, and unsubscribing is a breeze.
