Seen & Heard: Brookfield Place Lobby Closure

••• From Brookfield Place: “Construction on the lobby at 225 Liberty St. will begin on Thursday, January 23, and there will be no street-level access to the building via the South End Avenue cul-de-sac. This construction will culminate in a new car-drop and glass entryway for 225 Liberty St. (image above). This work is expected to be completed in late 2014.”

••• Whole Foods Tribeca has suspended delivery because of the storm.

••• The Community Board 1 Seaport/Civic Center meeting is still for on tonight, but the Peck Slip School update has been postponed.

••• “Pen Parentis is thrilled to announce an evening of readings and conversation with three esteemed writers from Tin House Books: Cari Luna, Elissa Schappell, and Matthew Specktor.” It’s February 11 at the Hotel Andaz.

••• For the Progress Report I posted earlier today, I got an update from the folks behind the 27 Desbrosses Street restaurant. They’re saying a realistic opening forecast would be early fourth quarter.
