Location: Manhattan Borough President’s Office, 1 Centre Street – 19th Floor, Northside meeting room
1) Holland Tunnel traffic impacts – Update by NYC Department of Transportation Manhattan Borough Commissioner Luis Sanchez

No clue what this is about; obviously, the tunnel traffic causes major back-ups all around north Tribeca. Folks who have been concerned about aggressive driving as a result—such as the cars driving on the sidewalk outside 456 Washington—should definitely come voice their concerns to Sanchez.

2) Pier 26 Preliminary Design – Presentation by Madelyn Wills, President, Hudson River Park Trust

I suspect it will first be released to the New York Times, or perhaps the Wall Street Journal (even though its “Greater New York” section has been downsized).

3) 95 West Broadway, application for liquor license for Tribeca Hotel LLC – Resolution
4) 313 Church Street, application for restaurant liquor license for A.G. Tribeca d/b/a Antique Garage Tribeca – Resolution

As discussed here.

5) 109 West Broadway, application for liquor license for 109 West Battery Food & Wine LLC and Yves LLC – Resolution

Matt Abramcyk’s plans for the Super Linda space, as discussed here.

6) 35 Lispenard Street, application for wine and beer license for Lispenard Fish LLC d/b/a Relish Poke – Resolution

Nothing online about Relish Poke, so it appears to be the first of its kind. (This is the former Café Noir space.)

UPDATE: Nothing gets the commenter known as James—or at least one of the commenters known as James—fired up like when I say that I couldn’t find anything online about a topic. He dug around and deduced that “this restaurant is from a Philadelphia-area McDonalds’ restaurant owner/operator named Jonathan Chong,” although that name strikes me as likely to be common enough that there’s still a chance it’s someone else.

7) Application for newsstand at the southwest corner of Warren and Greenwich Streets – Resolution

Why?! There’s way too much going at that corner already, with the Citi Bike station, bike racks, charity muggers, Whole Foods marketers, and general pedestrian traffic. What’s more, a newsstand opened halfway down Chambers (toward West St.) just a few months ago.

8) 450 Washington Street, application for liquor license for an entity to be formed by Tom Gialamboukis – Resolution

As discussed here.

9) 2017 TD Five Boro Bike Tour, application for various street closures on Sunday, May 7, 12 a.m. to 12 p.m. – Resolution

Mark your calendars (and buy your earplugs). Although according to the NYPD’s permit application, amplified sound is not allowed on weekends before 10 a.m. in a residential area (I boldfaced the particularly relevant parts):

The police commissioner shall not issue any permit for the use of a sound device or apparatus: In any location within five hundred feet of a school, courthouse or church, during the hours of school, court or worship, respectively, or within five hundred feet of any hospital or similar institution; in any location where the commissioner, upon investigation, shall determine that the conditions of vehicular or pedestrian traffic or both are such that the use of such a device or apparatus will constitute a threat to the safety of pedestrians or vehicular operators; in any location where the commissioner, upon investigation, shall determine that conditions of overcrowding or of street repair or other physical conditions are such that the use of a sound device or apparatus will deprive the public of the right to the safe, comfortable, convenient and peaceful enjoyment of any public street, park or place for street, park or other public purposes, or will constitute a threat to the safety of pedestrians or vehicle operators; in or on any vehicle or other device while it is in transit; between the hours of 10 p.m. and 9 a.m.; or between the hours of 8 p.m. or sunset, whichever is later, and 9 a.m. on weekdays and between the hours of 8 p.m. or sunset, whichever is later, and 10 a.m. on weekends and public holidays, in any location within fifty feet of any building that is lawfully occupied for residential use. The distance of fifty feet shall be measured in a straight line from the point on the exterior wall of such building nearest to any point in the location for which the permit is sought.

Many of us have said it before: By all means start the event here—just minimize the amplified noise early on Sunday morning.

10) The following notices have been received for renewal, upgrade, or transfer of wine and beer or liquor licenses or sidewalk cafe permits:
—156 Chambers Street, application for renewal of liquor license, Mariachi’s Restaurant Corp. – Resolution
