@CHWKgrl Interesting that you refer to a veteran and patriot as a "gun nut". I guess everyone that has a gun is a nut by your definition. Even after an episode like 9/11, you refuse to acknowledge that we are trying to fight the nuts together. While you are dining at your fine restaurants and visiting your museums and theaters, remember that our veterans make that all possible. — Marc on In the News: Another Pistol-Packing Tourist Arrested at the 9/11 Memorial

When in New York do as NY'ers do! So Texas is a "BIG culture" because they believe in the right to carry. Well New York City is a BIG culture because we didn't all turn into gun carrying nuts after 9/11, we have world class museums and theatre, and for the most part, we live pretty well amongst one another. And our food ain't bad either! — CHWKgrl on In the News: Another Pistol-Packing Tourist Arrested at the 9/11 Memorial

Thanks for following up on the BLT replacement, TC! AKM — AKM on Seen & Heard: Free Fireboat Rides

The Lugo at 1 Penn Plaza is pretty good - a bright spot in a neighborhood without a lot of otherwise decent options. — AliceG on Seen & Heard: Free Fireboat Rides

Can't they try to move the trees to a nearby park? Large old trees are something money can't buy. They always plant saplings after construction which take so many years to be big nice shade trees. Such a shame. — Tribecamom on Valentine No. 45

DDG is one of the most ruinous developers Tribeca has known, aside say, from Related, Aby Rosen, Vornado, and Ponte Equities. Our city government seems utterly taken over by the real estate industry. It is time for New Yorkers to figure out ways to change that. — Lynn Ellsworth on Valentine No. 45

This image is of the amazing New York City Ballet Principal Dancer, Lauren Lovette. In 2014, JR and NYCB collaborated on an installation at the Company's Lincoln Center home out of which grew other work, including a film, Les Bosquets, that was directed by JR and feature Ms. Lovette and Lil' Buck. — Fredrick on There’s a Huge Mural Going Up at Church and Franklin

You can report it on the city website: https://www1.nyc.gov/apps/311universalintake/form.htm?serviceName=DEP+Sewer+Odor I've had excellent results with the various local potholes I've reported via 311 on NYC.gov so I'd expect they would at least send someone to check it out if you can describe the location closely enough and the smell persists long enough to still be there when they arrive. — Nicole Vianna on Seen & Heard: The Dancer Mural is Done

What is the history of the ally that runs off of that parking lot? The ally runs behind those buildings on the Northern side of Franklin Street, west of the little parking lot. Seems to be at a much lower level than the street. Were there some major topography changes? — RDunn on Valentine No. 45

Such a shame ...... — Cate on Valentine No. 45

I agree about that stench. It's unreal how bad it is -- how does that get addressed? We walk by every morning and have to hold our breath! — Mark on Seen & Heard: The Dancer Mural is Done

One of my favorite "groves" of trees in Tribeca- been photographing them for years and years. Never knew the name before. Thanks for the education. And I will certainly miss them as well. — Robert Ripps on Valentine No. 45

From the post in Feb 2014 when the store was announced: The store will be around 13,000 square feet total (making it twice as large as the one on Broome), with half of that on the ground floor and 1,000 square feet in a mezzanine with seating. “We’re going to expand in-house dining a bit,” he said. “It won’t be a restaurant, but I want to have fresh-baked pastries in the morning, an East Coast oyster bar, tastings with breweries, a cooking school….” This will likely entail new partnerships, but nothing has been signed yet. “In the basement, we’ll build a kitchen from the ground up. We’ll do all scratch cooking just for that store.” https://tribecacitizen.wpengine.com/2014/02/05/gourmet-garage-is-opening-here/ — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: The Guys Who Rowed Across the Atlantic

Walked by gourmet garage this morning, there are a bunch of shelves and refrigeration units but they are all empty. Also saw a stack of chairs and tables, I think it's for their eat in area in the back. Looks like there will be an eat in area... not positively certain though... — TribecaMom on Seen & Heard: The Guys Who Rowed Across the Atlantic
