That Denny's also had a well stocked bar. Kinda sad to see it go, but I suppose a Duane Reade or perhaps a Sephora or another Ricky's will do better biz ;-) — en_b on Denny’s Has Closed

It's really disheartening to see more people lose their light from exposures that will now be obliterated by buildings. It's feeling like midtown around here. — ktaverna on The Next Wave of New Buildings in Tribeca

I'm always puzzled by people complaining about people complaining about first-world problems. Do you not see the irony in posting your complaint? PS "First world" is no longer the accepted term, if you want to complain, please call the other complainers "developed world complainers." — Ellen2 on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

I don't suppose it has anything to do with it being year-end (or their just having been purchased by Amazon) so maybe it's time for a giant (annual?) inventory to be taken, and they're letting the stock get low to make the job easier of counting all the stuff that's on the shelves? I used to work in a bookstore, and the only way to know what we actually had in stock (what the computer said we had in stock was often inaccurate after a year) was to count every book. It took forever, and was made easier by our letting things thin out before the end of the year, then ordering a bunch of new stuff after we'd finished the inventory, which was done overnight in one giant push. — Will Meyerhofer on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

I think I didn't write the intro clearly enough.... This roundup is of *new* buildings—i.e., ones that will make the blocks they sit on look different than before. While the Walker Hotel Tribeca at 396 Broadway will undoubtedly bring a different energy to that corner, it won't look all that different. — Erik Torkells on The Next Wave of New Buildings in Tribeca

But where there is no tofu or carrots there is Domino’s Sugar and Dylan’s Candy! — TG on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

Absolutely love the local humor canonized in this week’s New Yorker! Bravo. — TG on In the News: The Dead Rabbit Will Nearly Double in Size

How about the corner building on the south east corner of Broadway and Walker? — Charles Cecil on The Next Wave of New Buildings in Tribeca

First world problems. I have so many things I’d like to say here but you can all just get off your high horse complaining asses and walk a few blocks and find whatever you god damned need. You’re not in Syria in a refugee camp, the middle of nowhere, or starving to death. You haven’t run out of your food stamp money, nor are you living in an apartment with no heat. Wake up and smell the roses. — Seriously People? on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

Thanks for pulling these together Eric. There goes the neighborhood! — Bill Van Parys on The Next Wave of New Buildings in Tribeca

Wow...thanks for organizing all this information in one place. I walk past these sites every day, but they all begin to blur. — Will Meyerhofer on The Next Wave of New Buildings in Tribeca

Whole Foods was missing tofu, leeks, carrots, shallots and squash. Put an end to my planned meal of the week of carrot soup and baked tofu! — Nat on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

It's not just down in Tribeca it is also up in the Village also a few times over he last 2-3 weeks have found my local Gourmet garage and a few other spots out or very low on some items .They restocked and ran out again I think due to the holidays and bad weather more people stocked up on food and cooked at home instead of going out. Deliveries have gotten messed up also between the weather & holidays. — M on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

At Best Market today the situation was similar, although that's the first time I've seen a situation like that on my regular Wednesday afternoon shopping trip so it might still be related to last Thursday's storm delaying deliveries. — N on In the News: Inventory Problems at Whole Foods

Thanks for the update, Erik! — Sam on Seen & Heard: Holland Tunnel Traffic Study

Thank you for the Guide! In TriBeCa, our favorite spot is Petrarca. Great Italian food, although a bit expensive (at least compared to what we are used to from the East Village; apparently these prices are normal for TriBeCa!). Always a consistently great meal there, fresh pastas are fantastic, service is excellent, atmosphere just right. Nearby favorite: Buddha Bodai on Mulberry. Vegan Asian. Have not had much luck finding good vegan options in TriBeCa. Any recommendations welcome! (Petrarca has some vegan pasta options, since even pastas are not necessarily vegan) Maybe adding "vegan" and/or "vegetarian" categories to the Restaurant Guide? Although I fear those may be empty menus at the moment...but might encourage an intrepid restauranteur to open a new veg place! — Marcus on Where Do You Like to Eat Around Here?

That's a shame. I always loved the ombre, and it was also not as space-confining as their other stores. — mruptight on Aesop Has Closed Its Tribeca Shop

"Possibly Church Street" (#23) is actually the east side of West Broadway above Duane. The store fronts are now occupied by Build Now, Calypso St. Barth (RIP), Tiny's, and Balloon Saloon. It has really cleaned up well! — Leo on Tribeca in the 1980s

I love the conversion of the Barnett Newman Triangle...Looks like it may function as a mini-park. Any slice of green nature downtown seems like good news! https://ny.curbed.com/2014/11/19/10019662/tribeca-triangle-may-get-makeover-rocket-factory-lofts-diy — Marcus on The Next Wave of New Buildings in Tribeca

Thank you for your honesty, Adam No Lies. So refreshing. The children of Tribeca should salute you. EriK on the other hand.. — Jim Smithers on Where in Tribeca…?
