Is M1-5 on Walker Street (problems with neighbors, etc) to be discussed? Or have the issues been resolved? — Marcus on Is Tribeca Getting a South African Restaurant?
Harrison brightens the daily lives of those in our community. His smile, his fist bumps and his friendliness make our neighborhood a better place to live. — Rachel on Valentine No. 53
Jon-- hahahahaha. You nailed it. We live across the street and would go there often. It was also a good place to visit if you craved some old fashioned service to go with your super expensive Italian food! A double RIP! ?? — Janet on Another New Building on Warren Street
Re: Two Hands. Why would anyone want to sit amidst a huge noisy construction site its one of the busiest and touristy corners plus it's where all of our dogs are walked(and like to poop). Also the sidewalk cafe takes up most of the sidewalk on this unusually busy corner. I cant see how this can be good for anyone. Disclaimer i live right around corner i find it disrupting and annoying. But then again tribeca these days is extremely annoying especially the heavy construction zone of northeastern tribeca. — Sheba on Seen & Heard: South African Restaurant Now Appears to Be Italian
Hi TC - just ate at LP&LP (as I'm calling it) and from my experience it sounds like they have improved since your visit. The service was great and very friendly and nothing jumped out at me as not restaurant-experienced. That said, food came out in uneven order, as you noted, and, oddly, they were "out" of sparkling water ("but doesn't the market sell sparkling water not 50 paces away?" you may wonder, as I did). But our food was delicious (including my Verdure) and we had a lovely experience so I still count it as a great addition to the neighborhood! Cheers, AKM — AKM on First Impressions: La Pizza & La Pasta at Eataly
Of all the things I've read on the world wide internets since Memorial Day, this is officially the single best feel-good post of the entire summer. We've since moved to Chelsea, but I still check TC once a day or so (kudos to you, Eric!) and Harrison should be the official face of Tribeca. I got a fist bump from him almost every single day for 4 years. He never knew my name. But I know if I saw him 10 years from now in the street he would light up and flash a winning grin without a seconds hesitation. So would I. — Kristopher on Valentine No. 53
One of the loveliest people I know. My daughter calls him her favourite man. — Lisa on Valentine No. 53
Imagine if it opened next to a certain new Cuban joint — jfrankp on A New Vietnamese Restaurant
Hope the rent Book Nook is paying is not standard Tribeca-insane. We and our little ones will certainly give them as much business as possible. — Noah on Seen & Heard: Franklin Street Flame Building
25 Park Place. — Robert Ripps on Where in Tribeca…?
Absolutely their best employee. Make me feel like I'm a long lost friend every time I see him. A raise isn't good enough. They should give him stock in the company. He's earned it. — Bob Halper on Valentine No. 53
With Cut and Del Friscos coming to the area, we are going to have some really nice steak options. Wolfgang's is also terrific, but Cut is likely going to be one of the top steak houses in the city and certainly the best downtown. Very exciting. — Rodney on In the News: The Police Dog of 19th-Century Tribeca
The taqueria still isn't open. I think you're supposed to take it back to your office and eat at your desk. Or the park across the street. The Japanese candy place in that row opened this week, however, and has some yummy little jelly candies, and today Lady M opened on the level above with $8 slices of cake which look worth trying. Devon and Blakley looks close to opening and they're working on Épicerie Boulud. — Hudson River on In the News: Free Kayaking on Governors Island
Couldn't agree more! Harrison makes WF feel like a neighborhood spot! — Gen on Valentine No. 53
Erik thanks for doing the profile. Harrison is indeed a breath of fresh air. WF needs to hire him away from the security firm and have him be part of the WF family so he can make a real living. — Demetri on Valentine No. 53
Love that guy! — Lou on Valentine No. 53
Harrison brings sunshine to my day with his kindness and bright smile. He welcomes you to Whole Foods with a friendly greeting and is a very polite Gentleman. Harrison is always professional and makes Whole Foods Tribeca a wonderful place to shop. He really does deserve a raise!!! — Fatima on Valentine No. 53
BFX gym had a location at 30 Broad. BFX is owned by NYSC. The NYSC on Wall Street lost its lease and has taken over the BFX space. — Luis Vazquez (FiDi Fan Page) on Is Tribeca Getting a South African Restaurant?
RIP forever Il Giglio. Great food, but a dank atmo and the most depressed-looking servers of any restaurant anywhere. — Jon on Another New Building on Warren Street
I am grateful for Harrison's wonderful presence, too. Years ago I told him I lived on Harrison Street. (At B&N there's a security guard named Franklin, which somehow delighted me too. Silly, I know!) — Jane on Valentine No. 53
Give him a raise! The nicest thing about Whole Foods is Harrison who makes my day. Love his new uniform shirt too. — Dixie on Valentine No. 53
And here I thought it was just me. Harrison is the bomb! — dianne talan on Valentine No. 53
Seeing Harrison always brightens my day. He always has a smile and a nice word. Thank you for posting this. I hope he knows how much he is appreciated! — Amanda on Valentine No. 53
I wasn't aware of it, but that's great Tribeca Trust had an impact. — Erik Torkells on Two New Tribeca Landmarks
Astounding to me that you don't mention the work that Tribeca Trust did to get these buildings protected. Lynn — Lynn Ellsworth on Two New Tribeca Landmarks
