STILL WORKING: KIDLIT TV
An online television channel that celebrates reading, writing and the art of children’s books — filmed out of a Franklin Street loft — is expertly poised for this moment.

THE RETURN OF CONSTRUCTION
Construction on street projects is deemed essential and continues in the neighborhood, though often the sites seem quiet.

SEEN & HEARD
A few items that have nothing to do with the virus: A tribute to the movie Sabrina and its downtown roots; a tribute to our cleaner air for earth day; 51 Franklin for sale; love in the underground.

SEEN & HEARD
Sewers got to sew, painters got to paint: Local textile artist Mary Jaeger is using her scraps to make masks into fashion statements; painter John Willenbecher shows his work via email.

ANDY KOUTSOUDAKIS FUND RAISES $53K
Started by his family as a way to honor the owner of Tribeca’s Kitchen, the fundraiser is being used to send masks to hospitals.
