Tribeca

That’s the long-vacant space (above) between N. Moore and Franklin that was going to be Le Dû’s Wines, until it got derailed. I couldn’t find anything online about Noted Tribeca Inc.

3/15 Quality of Life & Service Delivery Committee
Location: Community Board 1 – Conference Room, 1 Centre Street, Room 2202A-North
1) Helicopter Tourism – Update from Saker Aviation Services

I predict Saker Aviation Services will say everything is peachy. Here’s what CB1 should specifically ask about (from the city’s heliport agreement):

Starting in July 2016, the operators will provide a monthly written report to NYCEDC and the New York City Council detailing the number of tourist flight operations conducted out of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport as compared to these agreed upon levels. The report will also include information on any tour helicopter flights that fly over land and stray from agreed upon routes over water. A third-party firm will be made available to verify these reports periodically.

The heliport concessionaire will establish a system to monitor air quality in the vicinity of the Downtown Manhattan Heliport and report monthly on readings to NYCEDC and the New York City Council.

The heliport concessionaire will actively research available technologies to further mitigate helicopter noise, reduce emissions, and promote fuel efficiency, and to implement any such technology as it becomes commercially feasible.
