Just think of all the great artists that have bought supplies at that store and then take that history and throw it away. that is the problem with NYC! — Chris Egan on Pearl Paint Has Indeed Closed

Really. 40 years ago, 100 years ago, we had celebrities walking around and the deal was NO BIG DEAL. Get over it. — jean grillo on Welcome to TweeBeCa: Special Celebrity Edition!

Say it isn't so. Pearl Paint closed. I'd rather believe Jesus did not die on the cross than to believe Pearl Paint is closed. As a long time artist I will say I do not like art supply stores and clerks even less. Finally when I discover a "REAL' art supply store, it closes. Every time. I for one will truly miss Pearl Paint. — Capt Flash on Pearl Paint Has Indeed Closed

Pearl Paint. J&R. Loheman's. Dante's (Village cafe). A plague year. How much poorer our city has become as my place flings itself headlong into everyplace. — AS on Pearl Paint Has Indeed Closed

This story encapsulates much that is despicable about the TFF, IMO. — David G. Imber on An Explanation for the Lights on the AT&T Long Lines Building

Sorry to hear this. I've always loved the sense of treasure finding I had a Pearl Paint. — Liat on Pearl Paint Has Indeed Closed

Nope, not yet — Erik Torkells on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

I am also hoping that Cathy Drew and the River Project will be running the Estuarium. Erik do you have any information on this? — Huck's Mom on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

Racked reports that the Posman bookstore will be 7,000 sf but I wonder if they just misread the original press release which gave the 7,000 sf space to J. Crew. I hope the book store IS 7,000 sf and I'm very happy to have it added to the mix! http://ny.racked.com/archives/2014/04/21/j_crew_paul_smith_posman_books_headed_for_brookfield_place.php#more — Luis Vazquez on In the News: J. Crew, Posman Books, and Paul Smith

weak! now I will have to walk past the designer knock-off handbag sellers on canal and broadway instead of avoiding them by walking through Pearl Paint. — HH on Pearl Paint Has Indeed Closed

Great, hopefully the River Project will run the Estuarium; after all, Cathy Drew has been collecting data from that location long, long before the waterfront was fashionable. The River Project has been a wonderful educational asset to our community, and their return to PIer 26 is long overdue. — Kc on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

I walked by El Vez on Saturday, and there was someone official-looking just outside holding a menu and describing it to ~20 staff in uniform. Assume the nice weather let them have class outside. Either way, good signs for it opening soon. — JK on Seen & Heard: The AT&T Long Lines Building Comes Alive!

Yes, it is wretched.. in many ways — Sheila on Welcome to TweeBeCa: Special Celebrity Edition!

So then...probably "wretched", more or less. Thank you. — David G. Imber on Welcome to TweeBeCa: Special Celebrity Edition!

I would like to say I have seen this biker he is on his citibike riding like a mad man and racing very fast in the bike lane. I have seen this guy use vulgar language at the drivers which is not called and very loudly i should add that he needs to understand sometimes people are doing there jobs. — thomas wallington on Seen & Heard: FedEx Blocking Bike Lanes

Broadway and Reade St — James on Where in Tribeca…?

A fitting tribute to the man for whom the vessel was named. Although her working days are a mere memory, to be used as an oyster bar is appropriate as my father loved oysters. Good luck! — Peter Zwicker on The Coolest Spot in Tribeca This Summer

Yes, one is, but no operator has been announced. It's not opening till 2015 — Erik Torkells on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

Is a restaurant still planned for Pier 26 ?? http://www.grubstreet.com/2013/06/pier-26-hudson-river-park-restaurant.html — Alex on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

Is a restaurant planned for Pier 26 as well? Any word on who will be operating it? http://www.grubstreet.com/2013/06/pier-26-hudson-river-park-restaurant.html — Alex on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

The culprits on Duane are NYFD not NYPD. — TribecaMom on Seen & Heard: NYPD Double-Parking

The Villager editorial incorrectly quotes crime statistics implying that Greenhouse is located in the 6th Precinct. It is actually in the 1st Precinct. — Bruce on In the News: Pier 26 Estuarium Gets Funding

Please explain yourself. You say cops breaking the law? Is smoking breaking the law? Please show me someone smoking that's getting carted off to jail. Sleeping in a car, is that another felonious offense? I don't hear anyone bitching when you pass an ambulance with a guy sleeping waiting for a call or a firehouse in the middle of the night with the lights off. All these people work hard for a living, harder than the average person sitting at a cubicle playing candy crush on their work time. Y not stop your whining and show these people assume respect. They enforce the laws and protect the rights that allow you to get on this website and speak your mind. Wake Up!!!!! — Friedrich on Seen & Heard: NYPD Double-Parking

too many celeb references, I like it better when it's wry observations about Tribeca... — Liat on Welcome to TweeBeCa: Special Celebrity Edition!

A term for a ugly, funky, and stupid person. Bascially means the same thing as hot mess. Or a term for a place or thing that is old and busted. You: "Look how that bitch look today!" Me: "Yea, that hoe stay lookin ratched!" Or You:"Man that girl house was dirty!" Me:"Yea that sh*t was pretty ratched." — Sheila on Welcome to TweeBeCa: Special Celebrity Edition!
