••• Pen Parentis‘s M.M. De Voe got a peek inside the new Parm at Brookfield Place, and they told her it’s opening tomorrow (Monday). Here’s her pic:
••• Gotham Bikes on Reade is getting into the bike rental business (or maybe it always has been in it?). Anyway, signage.
••• Speaking of bikes: “I commute by Citi Bike daily from North Battery Park City to FiDi,” emailed a reader. “I was pleased yesterday to be able to ride on Greenwich St. from Vesey to Liberty (the first time someone could do that in 50 years). So I was disappointed today to be told that the street is in fact closed (‘to make room for construction trucks’) and be told to instead walk my bike on the sidewalk. 2 WTC will be done in 2020, so we’ll see if a bike path opens up before then.”
••• Fireworks tonight (Sunday) for Gay Pride: around 9:45 p.m. south of Pier 40.
••• I heard back from Cynthia Lopez, head of Made in NY (which oversees film production in the city), about the helicopter disturbance. I’ll try to remember to follow up.
