2) 113 Reade Street, application for liquor license for Serafina Tribeca Restaurant LLC – Resolution

At long last. When Cafeteria was planning to open there (Reade and W. Broadway, where the homeless people live), residents vociferously opposed the liquor license.

3) 385 Greenwich Street, application for sidewalk café application for Aemal LLC – Resolution

The restaurant in the former Ivy’s Bistro, from Matt Abramcyk and Akiva Elstein. From last July’s Unofficial Minutes: “The acting committee chair said they obviously weren’t going to be considering tables on N. Moore, but you can bet money they are. Smith & Mills has a sidewalk café, after all, which the guys got by going around CB1 altogether. Also, note the service door onto N. Moore in the floor plan.”

4) 62 Thomas Street, application for restaurant liquor license for Elmwood Venture LLC d/b/a Buddha Bar – Discussion

It looks like Buddha Bar, having been opposed by neighbors and rejected by CB1 before, is trying again. UPDATE 7/3: This is actually a report from a CB1 member, not a discussion, but my understanding is that the headline remains accurate: Buddha Bar has not given up.

5) 251 Church Street, application to the SLA to include a sidewalk café for Two Hands Tribeca

Two Hands applied for the café permit a couple of months ago, now they need a revised liquor license to serve alcohol out on the Church Street Riviera.

6) 241 West Broadway, application for liquor license for entity to be formed by Sean Cunningham – Resolution

Discussed here. UPDATE: But the more relevant post is now here.

7) 349-351 Greenwich Street, application for liquor license for SAAR NYC, Inc. – Resolution (tentative)

I have a lead on this. Stay tuned….

Location: Community Board 1 – Conference Room, 1 Centre Street, Room 2202A-North
1) 22 Reade Street proposal – Presentation by Dan Hoeg, The Hoeg Corporation

22 Reade is one of the three buildings (along with 346 Broadway and 49-51 Chambers) that the city sold to private developers. The other two are mid-conversion; this is the first we’ve heard about 22 Reade, which is at the corner of Elk. I went to the Hoeg Corporation’s website to see if there happened to be anything about 22 REade. The Investing Insights page is, oddly, a random selection of personal photos.

7/20 Executive Committee – 6:00 PM
Location: Community Board 1 – Conference Room, 1 Centre Street, Room 2202A-North
1) Discussion of what committee mandate and objectives should be

Location: Community Board 1 – Conference Room, 1 Centre Street, Room 2202A-North
1) TD Five Borough Bike Tour – Discussion with Sharon Pope, Community Outreach/Strategic Planning Manager, Bike New York

Those of us who had issues with the insanely loud pre-race noise should make sure CB1 is aware of how bad it is, because the rep is likely going to say it’s not bad at all and no one complained to her. Email man01@cb.nyc.gov.

2) Mayor’s Office of Media & Entertainment – Presentation and discussion with Andrew Brokman, Deputy Director of External Affairs
3) Sanitation and other quality of life issues in Community Board 1 – Discussion with Tommy Lin, Director of Constituent Services, New York City Community Assistance Unit
