Seen & Heard: Fusion Physical Therapy Is Opening on Reade

November 21, 2014 Restaurant/Bar News, Services, Shopping

••• Warren 77‘s sandwich board has been getting pretty frisky lately—but last night, someone had enough.

Waren 77 sign••• Fusion Physical Therapy is opening at 60 Reade, where Kristin Hanson Jewelry used to be. (The original is on W. 13th St.) From the website: “At Fusion Physical Therapy & Sports Performance, we blend clients’ individual rehabilitation and training needs with input from their physicians, alternative-care practitioners and sports-team coaches to build a personalized fitness program.”

60 ReadeFlip N Check Mad Libs••• Local resident Pam Chmiel, who runs the not-for-profit Teen Entrepreneur Boot Camp at Stuyvesant High School, says that the program’s new project—”a Mad Libs edition of Flip ’N’ Check, a dry-erase activity game that the program previously launched, that not only makes Mad Libs reusable, but the iconic game will now also be harder to predict as the player will no longer see the story while filling in the blanks.” Find it at Boomerang Toys and Shoofly.

••• I’ve been sitting on this question for a while. I emailed the Q&A columnist in the New York Times’s Metropolitan section—you know, the paper’s weekly section about the city—but I never heard back. I don’t even know who to ask! The question: Why do the addresses on a handful of Tribeca streets get higher as you go east? (Those are the ones in blue.) All of the red ones get higher as you go west.

    The funniest thing about the Warren 77 signs? That someone at Warren 77 thinks they can write funny signs.

    I don’t know what’s going on at Warren 77. Last month they had a sign making light of NFL players who beat their wives.

    NYC Planning seems most likely to know about the street numbers, but I don’t know who. Some staff there have the most amazing knowledge of the city.

    I wonder whether the folks at Forgotten NY might have some ideas.

    Kristin Hanson Jewelry has expanded and opened a penthouse office at Rockefeller Center in NYC’s Diamond District. Schedule an appointment to visit our new couture diamond jewelry office anytime. Miss TriBeCa, but we are not far! Have a great day.

    House numbers are the domain of the Borough President’s office:
