I think the space on Walker might be Bartolami gallery. — Heide Fasnacht on Seen & Heard: New Gallery Update
I know it's right next to Morgan's, but I think the M in the ironwork stands for "Mitch's Place," the blue-collar / municipal worker bar that has been replaced by a parade of expensive restaurants culminating with Marc (egad...another M) Forgione. — Robin Clements on Where in Tribeca…?
Tom must not have categorized it as Tribeca.... (In fact, I see now he has it labeled as Noho.) I'll add it in the next batch. — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: New Gallery Update
Here is the Daytoninmanhattan post about the firehouse (and it being cut in half): http://daytoninmanhattan.blogspot.com/2011/11/1904-hook-and-ladder-company-no-8-14.html?m=0 This should be added to the page: https://tribecacitizen.wpengine.com/the-history-of-tribeca-buildings/ — James on Seen & Heard: New Gallery Update

LOL! I assume they figured it out huh? — Bruce on Seen & Heard: New Tenant at Brookfield Place
Hi...I'm surprised to see no comment on the passing of ACE Programs, which has done wonderful work in this neighborhood for many years and which has turned around the lives of so many. — Liam Lacey on In the News: Da Silvano Has Closed
I really appreciate the Tribeca Citizen. I would like to see more discussion about the situation of the myriad of aggressive hawkers selling illegal goods on Canal Street. This situation very seriously impacts the quality of life in the neighborhood and I am really surprised that there is so litte discussion. Perhaps this new year would be a good time to seriously resume this discussion. — Larry Fink on Seen & Heard: New Downtown Tour
How about towers cafeteria now the odeon the building next store owned by the same family (still) was Luke store before that Henry traffic pet shop — Joan pantzer on The History of Tribeca, One Building at a Time
I think it can be hard for people who inherently trust the police to understand why other people might not. Beyond that, I'm curious what the details are that don't make sense. — Erik Torkells on It Happened Here Again
I live on White St. and I've lived here for over 10 years; nobody I know heard about this attack until people started asking about it several days afterwards. I've read every version I can find, and too many of the details don't make sense. I would not be surprised if this turned out to have been fabricated by one of the outlets reporting it. — Jim on It Happened Here Again
Happy holidays! Thank you for this great site! — Marcus on Happy Holidays!
10+ years ago while wandering around Tribeca, I stumbled upon Antiqueria Tribeca. From the moment I walked inside, I felt like I had been transported to heaven. I didn't know where to look, there were so many perfectly staged exquisite pieces in such amazing condition all over the store. I'll never forget the candle they were burning either...it was intoxicating. Marion and Peter could not have been more hospitable to me, a 19-year-old college majoring in economics who had no business being there. They exuded warmth, and all I wanted to do is spend more time in such a magical place with such magical people. I asked if I could intern for them, and soon I was spending a few days a week with the most wonderful, ethical, humble, hilarious, and stylish couples I'd ever met. My time with them was one of the highlights of my life. I hold them in such a special place in my heart. I could go on and on, but I'll leave it at that. Peter and Marion, I'm sending my best wishes, and I can't wait to furnish my home with the stunning pieces from your store one day hopefully sooner than later :) — Jillian Ezra on Spotlight: Antiqueria Tribeca
Thanks for your continued excellent work. Tribeca Citizen keeps getting better! — Susan on Happy Holidays!
In his dreams. — Erik Torkells on Happy Holidays!
Thanks for another great year of the site. Do you two really own matching Christmas sweaters? — Dan Kohn on Happy Holidays!
Thank you for teaching me lots about this neighborhood where I've lived for over 30 years. Love the drawing of you three. Did you do it? — KP on Happy Holidays!
Bravo Erik! — Francesco on In the News: More on the Recent Attack
Hi Stacy. Miss seeing you around. — Francesco on Spotlight: Estancia 460
Reade Street by Iron Chef Marc Forgione's Marc Forgione. — Jim Smithers on Where in Tribeca…?
I've heard from bystanders who saw the incident occur. Also, in modern parlance, "fake news" refers to media outlets that purposefully make stories up outright, which is not the case here (except on April 1). — Erik Torkells on It Happened Here Again
This whole thing seems a bit suspicious, if it really happened there'd be an incident report even if the group refused to file. I suspect fake news to further the notion that Trump supporters are a modern version of the Brown Shirts from the original fascist era. — Jim on It Happened Here Again
It could also be troublemakers who are using Trump as a scapegoat for their bad behavior. — Sidney on It Happened Here Again
And thanks to Tom, to, for his research, and for letting TC catalog it. — A on The History of Tribeca, One Building at a Time
Thanks for organizing this, Erik. Fascinating stuff, and a great resource. — A on The History of Tribeca, One Building at a Time
