  • Who knew the NY Times was now offering 'humorous' reviews? I can't tell whether this is snark or satire. It reads ugly to me either way. — Andrea on In the News: 3 World Trade Center Construction Has Resumed

  • Jessica DiBari of the NYC office. I have found Congressman Nadler's constituent service to be wonderful whenever I have asked for help, even on very complex issues. Whether or not you agree with his politics, an elected official who remembers his duty to his constituents is worth our appreciation. — Anna on Seen & Heard: Sixth Avenue “Slow Zone”

  • The Ketch was at 70 Pine for 37 years before finally having to leave as a result of the building's conversion by Rose Associates into 800 apartments. The 35,000 sf of retail at the base is expected to include a 15,000 sf high end restaurant. It is rumored to be STK. 70 Pine opens in the fall. The Ketch opens at the Four Points Sheraton Hotel at 6 Platt in September. — Luis Vazquez on Seen & Heard: Sixth Avenue “Slow Zone”

  • From June re: the restaurant: "The HRP Trust has basically chosen someone to operate it, but the details are still being finalized and the announcement" was supposed to be in July, with an opening next spring/summer. https://tribecacitizen.wpengine.com/2014/06/12/cb1-tribeca-committee-the-unofficial-minutes-june-2014/ Not sure which green space you mean? Along West St? — Erik Torkells on Progress Report: Summer 2014

  • What's the story with the restaurant opening in the new building that was built on Pier 26? And it seems like the green space next to the structure has taken forever to finish, any update on either? — Michael on Progress Report: Summer 2014

  • This photograph from 1931 http://digitalcollections.nypl.org/items/510d47dd-5f00-a3d9-e040-e00a18064a99 shows the facade without the Brush Up Business "ad". Fake IMO. — James on In the News: More Upheaval at New Amsterdam Market

  • I didn't realize they opened in a new spot. Thanks. — Tanya on First Impressions: Café Noir

  • One more area that lost almost all its mailboxes: far northwest corner of Tribeca. Perhaps that could put back the one on Canal and Greenwich? — HCR on Seen & Heard: Debris Reportedly Fell From 56 Leonard

  • What is 56 Leonard saying about the debris, and what are they doing to prevent future issues? That's really scary. — Katharine Earnhardt on Seen & Heard: Debris Reportedly Fell From 56 Leonard

  • I would like to thank the author of this article for a nice shout out about our FlowCycle studio. Team FlowCycle — FlowCycle on Seen & Heard: One Vandam’s Funky Curtain Wall

  • Shouldn't there be one by every subway stop? At Hudson and Chambers, there's nothing anymore. And yes, I know there was construction there, but that's largely finished. And should the mail box be moved nearby while the construction takes place rather than being removed entirely? — KP on Seen & Heard: Debris Reportedly Fell From 56 Leonard

  • I've always thought the plaza outside Whole Foods made the most sense—if only because there's space there for it — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: Debris Reportedly Fell From 56 Leonard

  • If we're compiling a wish list, bring back the one at the SE corner of Greenwich and Chambers that disappeared in the great post 9/11-anthrax-scare purge of mailboxes (which always seemed to me to be actually driven by cost cutting with the public safety concern a convenient complaint shield). While it wouldn't be particularly useful to me today, back in the day, drop off the kid at 234 and mail the letters in the same trip was a regular thing and I'd imagine today's parents would quickly adopt the routine too. — N on Seen & Heard: Debris Reportedly Fell From 56 Leonard

  • excellent news re mail boxes.. now let's see when immediately comes into effect.... — Liat on Seen & Heard: Debris Reportedly Fell From 56 Leonard
