BROADWAY’S RESIDENTIAL BOOM
Eight conversions are currently underway, bringing nearly 500 new residential units to the six-block stretch between Canal and Worth—and that doesn’t even include the site that’s rumored to be making way for a 14-story condo.

FOOD SCRAP COMPOSTING AT TRIBECA GREENMARKET TURNS SPOILS INTO SOIL
Did you know that food comprises 17% of NYC’s waste stream? When sent to a landfill this material can create greenhouse gases, but when composted it becomes a valuable material that helps nurture NYC’s green spaces. Give peas a second chance! Drop off fruit and vegetable scraps for community composting at Tribeca Greenmarket, part of the GrowNYC & DSNY Food Scrap Compost Program. Every Saturday, 8 a.m. to 1 p.m., Greenwich St. at Chambers. Visit GrowNYC.org/compost for more information. Sponsored.
