Seen & Heard: Practicing on a landmark

NO SMOKE, NO FIRE
H. caught the folks at Ladder 8 showing some new recruits the ropes — and using the firehouse as practice. Not sure why this is so exciting to see — after all, it is a fire truck at a fire house — but it did it for me!

NO MEETINGS FOR CB1 THIS MONTH
There are no meetings scheduled for the month of August at Community Board 1. There may be an Executive Committee scheduled during the second week of the month, but no official decisions have been made as of yet.

COMMUNITY DANCE PARTY AT BPC
Battery Park City will host a piece of a citywide community dance party on Saturday, August 6, at 6:30p at Esplanade Plaza. Partner sites across all five boroughs will be dancing at the same time, and in BPC, Dancer Dash Perry and troupe will teach some of their signature moves, accompanied by DJ Susan Z Anthony.

COMING SOON TO THE PEARL RIVER SPACE…
P. caught the signs for 125 Newbury, the satellite gallery from Pace coming this fall to the former Pearl River space on Broadway. The name is a nod to gallerist Arne Glimcher’s first gallery ever in Boston.
