  • I have to agree here. Barely a mention.. And the park looked really bad after the Midsummer festival. Two days after and there was still a lot of trash on the main lawn and misplaced furniture. Not every celebration needs a photoessay, but a mention and a picture would've been nice and inclusive. — B.Thompson on A midsummer day at Rockefeller

  • Juneteenth came and went without a photoessay of all the rich celebrations in Tribeca. Not very inclusive. — Steve C on A midsummer day at Rockefeller

  • Yes, I am honored and lucky to run these shots. — Tribeca Citizen on A midsummer day at Rockefeller

  • These elaborate and expensive plans are based on the mistaken belief that BPC and Tribeca are at much greater risk than we were during Hurricane Sandy because the water in New York Harbor will rise three-to-six feet by 2050. An inconvenient truth: The water is rising at a rate of only one-eighth of an inch per year. At this rate, which they claim is "accelerating," it will take 288 years for the water to rise three feet. — Jon on Battery Park City’s new resiliency plans for Tribeca

  • With the introduction of the Slate menu, Laughing Man unfortunately had what was probably the best BEC sandwich in Tribeca (heavenly soft bread; tasty cheese melted into a fluffy scramble of no less than two eggs; and crispy bacon) replaced with what is very likely the worst (bread that should be wrapped in cellophane and sold next to the register; maybe 3/4 of an abnormally small egg; cheese and bacon so unremarkable that it's impossible to recall if it even had any; and, I kid you not, cold slices of lettuce and tomato of all things). What a shame. — Talg on Seen & Heard: Duane Park Patisserie is back open

  • Claudine is such a fantastic photographer! — K on A midsummer day at Rockefeller

  • Now imagine an 80 story tower just behind BM CC just South of Harrison street — Lucy on Battery Park City’s new resiliency plans for Tribeca

  • Since it's phonetic, either works -- but you are right to correct me on the name of this particular establishment. Just updated. — Tribeca Citizen on Noted falafel restaurant coming to Greenwich and Laight

  • Beautiful story and a God gifted man, God bless you for bringing Bonhoeffer to light to this generation. — Bob on Portrait of the Artist: Todd Komarnicki

  • Felafel or falafel, that is the question? — S on Noted falafel restaurant coming to Greenwich and Laight

  • What is going on at Pier 40? So many spaces available for community use are empty there. — James on Plans for the Pier 26 estuarium fill out the last piece of the park

  • DECEMBER 24, 2022 MY HUSBAND & I MADE RESERVATIONS AT IL MULINO IN MID-TOWN. I CALLED & THEY REASSURED ME THAT WE COULD EAT AT THE BAR, WHEN WE GOT THERE THEY TOLD ME WE COULDN'T. THEY PUT US AT A TABLE FOR 2 IN THE MIDDLE OF 2 PARTIES OF 5 - 6 PEOPLE ON EACH END. I ALWAYS BRAGGED ABOUT THE VEAL CHOP IN IL MULINO, IT WAS A DISGRACE THAT NIGHT. I HAVE TRIED FOR 1 1/2 YEARS TO REACH OUT TO AN ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE, THE LINE WAS CONSTANTLY BUSY, & NOBODY IN IL MULINO WAS ABLE TO GIVE ME A TELEPHONE NUMBER TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. WE ATE IN THE IL MULINO IN THE VILLAGE & THEN WHEN WE FOUND OUT THERE WAS ONE IN MID-TOWN & WE ALWAYS ATE AT THE BAR IN BOTH PLACES. WE WERE NEVER DISAPPOINTED UNTIL XMAS EVE 2022. I LEFT BOSTON,MA TO CELEBRATE THE HOLIDAY IN YOUR RESTAURANT & WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED & THIS IS THE CLOSEST I HAVE TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I REALIZE THAT "VEAL CHOPS" ARE VERY EXPENSIVE WHEREVER YOU GO, BUT THIS WAS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME VENT, IT IS OVERDUE, BUT I AM HOPING SOMEONE GETS THIS MESSAGE. RESPECTFULLY, MARIE A. MONTEMARANO — MARIE MONTEMARANO on Il Mulino is now Il Giglio

  • I truly don't even understand comments like this. This is a nice piece about a nice place to eat, and this is where your mind goes? What do you have against people who are trying to make a better life for themselves, anyway? If you wouldn't do the same, it says more about you than anything else. — malcolm on Catching Up with New Kids: Osteria Carlina

  • If you visit the existing pier 40 River Project, you will see that it is as fascinating for adults as it is for children. I am so happy this project is moving forward. — JM on Plans for the Pier 26 estuarium fill out the last piece of the park

  • Speaking of wooden structures- Do you know why Citibank on W. Bdwy and Duane has two huge wooden boxes on both sides of the entrance doorway that went up shortly after they opened? The message on the boxes asks for us to please pardon their appearance- renovations but it has been years now without any visible changes or ongoing construction. Thank you! — K on Nosy Neighbor: Who do we call to get the wooden structures on the street removed?

  • "Think global, act local." Thanks, Pam! — Mr. Burns on Nosy Neighbor: Who do we call to get the wooden structures on the street removed?

  • Yes, and how about a few methadone clinics, homeless shelters, and marijuana smoke shops. This neighborhood is way too nice. We need to fix that. — IJM on Catching Up with New Kids: Osteria Carlina

  • I'm very happy to see DUANE PARK PATISSERIE is open again. I particularly missed my son's favorite lemon tarte that he prefers to a regular birthday cake. It was a tough seven weeks! The place looks good. Still has the old charm it had before but brighter and more friendly for those who decide to stay in the store for our treats! — John Gallagher on Seen & Heard: Duane Park Patisserie is back open

  • Are there plans for a rubber mat or something grippy on that deck? I think every kid who’s played there (including mine) has slipped and fallen on their tush. — Tori on Nosy Neighbor: Any info on the water feature in Teardrop Park?

  • It is a center for the study of the estuary. It is not for kids any more than any science center is, though of course most education programs run out of there will be for children, since they go to school! — Tribeca Citizen on Plans for the Pier 26 estuarium fill out the last piece of the park

  • Anything in the pipeline for adults to enjoy? — B on Plans for the Pier 26 estuarium fill out the last piece of the park

  • Best news! We are excited!! — Chabad of Tribeca on Noted falafel restaurant coming to Greenwich and Laight

  • This looks great! Thanks for sharing — Umar S on Catching Up with New Kids: Osteria Carlina

  • Thanks for this. New restaurants are great for the neighborhood and everything, but when will we (finally) get a migrant shelter? — Steve C on Catching Up with New Kids: Osteria Carlina

  • They really need to bring the Milanese and the Ossobuco from the west village to Tribeca 2 of the best around — Italian stallion on Catching Up with New Kids: Osteria Carlina
