I'm surprised they're allowed to have those signs. Looks like 14th Street on the 80s. — Hudson River on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

The PA isn't allowed to do residential. I remember this came up on the early planning stages when people wanted new apartments there. I believe both state legislatures were needed to change it. It would be an interesting new housing concept, though. — Hudson River on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Can you imagine if we went up to Albany and started vetoing local ordinances? — john on In the News: Cuomo Blocks Plastic Bag Fee

"taxpayers will be left to pay for the upkeep of the vacant spaces" this is a port authority space so taxpayers aren't liable. theoretically, tolls and path fares could go up but there's a long way to go from $75k / month to the point where the landlord won't be able to pay upkeep. — safe as milk on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

La Colombe sells the pretzel croissants. — raw60 on Seen & Heard: A Peek Inside Serafina

I love all the croissants and the pretzel roll at Arcade Bakery. I actually love everything there. — TribecaMom on Seen & Heard: A Peek Inside Serafina

The production office for Oceans 8 is located in the building that houses Tamarind. The production trucks you see are used for wardrobe. So when you see them parked on Franklin they're in the process of loading in/loading out via the loading dock ramp. — Samantha on Seen & Heard: A Peek Inside Serafina

If I knew, I would tell. But there's no reason (that I know of) to believe that anything is moving in straightaway. — Erik Torkells on Birdbath Has Closed

Any idea what's taking its place? — Andrew on Birdbath Has Closed

They will be missed. Healthy muffins (if that is possible) and friendly service. — George on Birdbath Has Closed

They could convert the stores into apartments facing onto an interior subterranean courtyard. — James on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Had friends and family dinner at De Maria last night, Camille Becerra used to be the chef at Matt Abramcyk's spot Navy in SoHo, now she's there. No surprise but everything was delicious. — en_b on Seen & Heard: Soho/Nolita Report

Tourists could be the saving grace of the place. — Makes you go "hmmm..." on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Playing on this intertwining storyline.... Somebody certainly lost their marbles! The only question that remains to be answered once those tiny little orbs stop rolling is whether it is Going to be Pulia LLC or the landlord that takes the hit. — Rohin on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Please stop using emojis in comments. I just have to delete them. Thanks. — Erik Torkells on In the News: Tragedy at the Oculus

Horrible accident involving the young lady at the Oculus. I'm sickened by it. My deepest condolences to the family. — Janet on In the News: Tragedy at the Oculus

Booo. Too far away. That was a great restaurant. — Janet on In the News: Tragedy at the Oculus

Will miss Marbles... — Nicole on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Agreed! — Nicole on Nosy Neighbor: Where Are the World Trade Center Soldiers Based?

Yeah, try living above Rosa Mexicana. Avocados and limes. — Will on Seen & Heard: Two Hands on Film

Let us not forget the official name of this structure is the World Trade Center Transportation Hub. A hub for people to connect to transportation with not even public place to sit and catch your breath. By it very design it encourages people to keep walking to their destination and not relax. Westfield and their tenants will slowly abandon this folly and the taxpayers will be left to pay for the upkeep of the vacant spaces. — JPL on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

RE: "Marbles", seeing people in it does not mean they are making $$$! — Bruce on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

They already owe rent but haven't OPENED YET? Landlords typically give free rent during the "buildout" so WTF? And $75K/month is "stupid money"! Who could ever stay in business paying that? — Bruce on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Three months... $100,000 a month. At that rate, I suspect other stores will be closing, too. — Makes you go "hmmm..." on Seen & Heard: Nancy Whiskey Pub’s Golden Anniversary

Agreed!! — opal on CB1 Tribeca Committee: The Unofficial Minutes (February 2017)
