SEEN & HEARD
Happy Valentine’s Day. Plus Bond No. 9 will issue a TriBeCa perfume in time for you to smell like downtown for the film festival; a District 2 CEC town hall meeting coming up.

SEEN & HEARD
Tribecans for Bloomberg. Plus Frenchette goes west for the Oscars; Millennium High School goes green; Marc Forgione goes north to take over a 20-year-old Italian favorite.
