  1. At least they will still have the view of Truffles to the west from their penthouse terrace when the rear portion of 456 Greenwich St (on Washington St) blocks their view to the south!

  2. I eat regularly at Fields Good Chicken (which is next to my office) and they’re surprisingly good. It is Chipolte-style fresh, fast casual with a nice menu. Try the Bueno Bowl.
