••• “Schools Chancellor Carmen Farina told Downtown Express Wednesday that there likely will be some full-day, pre-K classes in the Tweed Courthouse building in 2015, but she gave a definite no to expanding classroom space this year for Peck Slip School parents who were hoping to get more space in their temporary and crowded and rooms at Tweed.”

went to the “soft” opening of Pier A yesterday and it is a wonderful place. The Poulakaus (sp?) family did a wonder job. Great views and atmosphere and a variety of rooms and places to eat and drink.
Is the soft opening open to the public? If not, any word on when the public can go?
It seems you could just walk in (I was invited). But I would say yes, you can just walk in.
I thought only the connecting plaza opened yesterday. Did the actual restaurants open yesterday?
Yes. Serving food and cold beer. Other beverages were also served, but it was early so I just had beer.
Here’s the website saying they are now open! http://www.piera.com/mix
