The little nook that belongs to Khe Yo on Duane Street — KLG on Where in Tribeca…?

RE: trip to Russia, I would be happy to help. Not a travel agent but I am from Russia and my family goes back every year! My mother just returned from St. Petersburg and has the best recommendations for where to stay, what to see and where to find authentic food. Feel free to email me at jenna@kwnyc.com! — Jenna Mckay on Seen & Heard: Nobu’s Final Night in Tribeca

We went to ROC the the night my doctor suddenly told me we had 3 hours to get packed and head to the hospital for our first baby. It was also where I had my first Mother's Day brunch. And Rocco always, always came through for Friends of Duane Park. We will miss this neighborhood gem! So excited for your next chapter! — Jenny on Roc Has Closed

I have subsequently learned that "The Spirit of Telegraphy" has been moved from New Jersey to AT&T's headquarters in Dallas TX. That guy gets around! — George Bacon on Seen & Heard: Nobu’s Final Night in Tribeca

I'm not liking what is happening in Tribeca. Restaurants dropping like flies and the only tenants who can afford it are big box retailers or banks. And then you trip over a double wide stroller every five minutes if you don't keep your eyes on the sidewalk. (Don't kill parentals---it's true.). — Janet on Huge Residential Conversion on Church Street

Rocco and Stacy, we wish you all the best. You will be missed. — Huck's mom on Roc Has Closed

Thanks Erik. Good for him if he got a better opportunity somewhere. Sad for us who really liked seeing him almost every day. — Jacqui Cousin on Valentine No. 53

I had hoped he was just working later in the day (and I only go to the store in the morning). I just emailed him. If I don't hear back, I'll try asking the store. — Erik Torkells on Valentine No. 53

I haven't seen Harrison for a few weeks either. Where is he?? — Sheetal Shah on Valentine No. 53

Ataulfo mangoes already made their seasonal debut at Chinatown fruit carts (corner of Mulberry and Canal) earlier this week (same ones with the purple stickers). 4 for $5 the last I checked. :-) — TribecaMom on Seen & Heard: Roc’s Farewell Note

I haven't seen Harrison at WF Tribeca for weeks. I hope he is still working there and our schedules are just different now? Can anyone confirm? — Jacqui Cousin on Valentine No. 53

Louisville is our daughter's second home. While we are unhappy about, literally, losing a cornerstone of our street and neighborhood, Aria will now have another great restaurant to take her many many Louisville friends to dine and enjoy. Sob! Guess I'll get to eat there if I go visit again. — Jean Grillo on Roc Has Closed

made me laugh out loud. — Josh on Huge Residential Conversion on Church Street

I was referring specifically to the restaurant design, not to the entire lobby. — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: Nobu’s Final Night in Tribeca

Re Nobu: “A pretty space" you say? Rather one of the grandest, stateliest public lobbies in lower Manhattan with its extravagant proportions and towering Doric marble columns. “Monetizing” that great hall for an eatery is nothing short of shameful. But this is not, alas, the first affront the building -- which began life as the headquarters of Western Union and AT&T in 1916 -- has had to suffer. In 1978 downtown Manhattan lost lost one of its iconic skyline features: the great, golden, 24-foot tall “Genius of Telegraphy" by Evelyn Beatrice Longman which stood atop the building and had been commissioned for it when it was built. That great, gilded bronze statue was taken down then and moved uptown to the lobby of Philip Johnson’s “Chippendale” building, AT&T’s new headquarters. And when Sony later took over that building it was deported to somewhere New Jersey. All very sad. — George Bacon on Seen & Heard: Nobu’s Final Night in Tribeca

All these new buildings look like NYU dorms which I don't mean as a compliment... — TG on Rendering for a New Nine-Story Building on Canal Street

It's mixed. At our preschool, 40% go to public, 60% to private. — Duane Street on Huge Residential Conversion on Church Street

Any word on where Allan & Suzi might move to? That place is a cathedral of good/bad taste. — mruptight on Seen & Heard: Roc’s Farewell Note

It's so easy to be a critic. As I tell my boys, if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything. — VG on Roc Has Closed

It's so easy to be a critic. — VG on Roc Has Closed

Eric, you are absolutely hysterical and hilarious! You got me!! I was freaking out which photos did I send!!!! Thank you for the laugh!!!! — Stacy on Seen & Heard: Roc’s Farewell Note

Seriously? You think that's an appropriate comment in this context? — Erik Torkells on Roc Has Closed

We went there once about eight years ago and had a very bad experience. We never went back. We are hoping a nice restaurant takes its place. — IJM on Roc Has Closed
