CB1 TRIBECA COMMITTEE: THE UNOFFICIAL MINUTES
The Cosmopolitan Hotel has decided to abandon its plans for a handsome addition (rendered above), so the Cafeteria restaurant coming to the site will be in its own building. Also discussed at CB1 Tribeca last week: Spring Studios gets the OK for 50 Varick, a temporary sculpture for Tribeca Park, Zutto, and more.

WHERE IN TRIBECA…?
No one has guessed last week’s Where in Tribeca…? yet. (Click the link to see it.) It’s in a prime enough part of the neighborhood—you’ve walked by it many times, no doubt. If no one guesses buy this afternoon, I’ll see if I can come up with a hint.
