Seen & Heard: Bluestone Lane is open
BLUESTONE LANE IS OPEN
More TK when I have a chance to stop by but here’s a sneak peak of the cafe, which is in the former Summer Day Cafe space on West Broadway and Reade. If you get the app, there’s free coffee for the next five days.

METAMORPHOSIS AT HAL BROMM
Hal Bromm Gallery (which opened in 1975 at 10 Beach, but that’s it’s own story) will show Metamorphosis — a show that focuses on capturing the emotional and psychological experience of the pandemic through color and imagery. Featuring work by 12 artists, the exhibition tells a story of loss, isolation, injustice and change, while simultaneously expressing the excitement and hope for our gradual return to normalcy. Until August 19 at 90 West Broadway.

The Bluestone Lane takeover of Manhattan feels like it has come out of nowhere. There are 4 just in Hudson Yards/Manhattan West. Insane.
I know. Been thinking the same since the one opened in Battery Park and now this one West Broadway. Noticed one on Bowery few days ago and was like, what is going on right now.
Most definitely an infusion of hedge fund capital.
A $19.5 mm investment is what’s going on with Bluestone Lane, as well as a connection to the owner of Hudson Yards and several Tribeca rental buildings.

I see. Also see an ex of mine is an investor. Go figure.
I am ok with Bluestone. Its a bright design and better than dead space. And we have some of that in tribeca and of course throughout the city
The Tribeca Recovery Task Force is a great idea. Looks like members are all business owners. What about a few residents as members to bring a diverse and different perspective?
There are residents on that list, though some are also business owners. Lappin, Meyers, Olsen, Dorf, Blank, Ganiaris, Steingard all live in Tribeca — and maybe others that I am not aware of.
