How about a bank where you can get your nails done? That's a money maker! — paul on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
Time to start a nail salon chain. Those places must rake it in if they can afford the same spaces as banks & starbucks — jfrankp on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
I'm not sure what is so terrible about a bank (especially a polite Canadian one). It's not loud, open at all hours, smelly or likely to attract unsavory types. Seems like a good, boring neighbor. — Andrea on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
Can we please get more Adult Stores?! The XXXtra special ones! — Jim Smithers on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
I've stopped shopping at Urban Outfitters (and Anthropologie) because I've probably aged out of their target range (15 years ago) and they don't have a great track record on social issues (e.g. political donations to Santorum) and their merchandise has often reflected this. — winniegirl on First Impressions: Urban Outfitters
Yes really bummed that it will be a bank but at least it's not going to be another nail salon! This area can use more 'neighborhood-y', casual, affordable restaurants. — TribResident on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
It's 100% unfortunately going to be a TD bank. I live at 295 Greenwich and asked a construction worker at the site yesterday who confirmed it to me. Uugh. — Lisa on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
In my experience, there is little you can do to get a neighbor to remove a sidewalk shed. The city cares about safety first, so if a building needs a sidewalk shed to make it safe, the sidewalk shed will stay up - even if for many years. The city can impose fines to the building for not making the building safe, but if the building does not make the proper repairs (and simply ignores the violations), the city will require the shed to stay up for as long to at least keep the sidewalk safe. — Josh on Nosy Neighbor: Is 37 Warren’s Sidewalk Shed Ever Coming Down?
You've got to hand it to those darned (big & rich) Canadian banks like TD. They like to put their branches where they think the money is! (: — Norm on Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening at Greenwich and Chambers?
It's not about what you need. It's about what's available and who's willing to pay for the rental space. Judging by the long lines at Colombe, i'm guessing Starbucks will do just fine at that location. If anything they get all the employees at 32 6th. That's called good business. — Kevin P. on Another Starbucks in Tribeca
Thanks for the intel! — Erik Torkells on Nosy Neighbor: Is 37 Warren’s Sidewalk Shed Ever Coming Down?
Hi. The construction is still not done on the building. The rooftop has not been installed; therefore, I assume they will not remove until that is complete. — Julie on Nosy Neighbor: Is 37 Warren’s Sidewalk Shed Ever Coming Down?
Hesitating walking in, mostly because I may feel old but you're review made me laugh a little so I guess I'll stop in. — Tina Ramchandani on First Impressions: Urban Outfitters
People complain about too many Starbucks, yet we keep going and they keep building more. Personally I like the convenience of having them around when your bladder is full and the alarms start going off. — Richie on Another Starbucks in Tribeca
We checked it out yesterday. I agree with the "I feel old" sentiment. It is a beautiful store though! A nice addition to that part of Broadway. — Claudine on First Impressions: Urban Outfitters
I haven't really shopped at UO since college but I do want to check out this new outpost. Thanks for the preview! — Rowena on First Impressions: Urban Outfitters
Hi there, I was for a couple days in NYC and had a chance to discover this nice shops by walking around in Tribeca. Anna and Michael are really nice and have a real passion for their products. I hope to have the same shop in Paris for enjoying distinctive products. — Jean Claude on New Kid on the Block: Stillfried Wien
I send a letter to every elected official at the City and State level who represents me, and to the Commissioners of all relevant City agencies. Add the Public Advocate. On NYC.gov, you can contact all Commissioners, etc. - but you have only 150 words. However, this is supposed to be tracked by City Hall. I've done this a few times and been surprised at who responded, especially in one instance. May not do anything, but you will have given it your best shot. — Anna on Nosy Neighbor: Is 37 Warren’s Sidewalk Shed Ever Coming Down?
Saluggi's on Church has amazing pizza and is kid friendly. — TribecaMom on Dean’s Pizzeria Has Closed
Wish them well... will miss Dean's... hopefully the "Implosion" is a peaceful one ;) — Rohin on Dean’s Pizzeria Has Closed
Well...now Tribeca needs a decent Pizza restaurant — Milo on Dean’s Pizzeria Has Closed
Gorgeous. So happy to see this building didn't end up a teardown. Well done. — C.J on A Landmark Is Reborn
Like we really need another nail salon, bank or Starbucks.... — Milo on Another Starbucks in Tribeca
They recently took Down the old water towers on the roof at 443 Greenwich. Some progress, albeit glacial. Not sure about what else is going on there. — McGee on Seen & Heard: El Vez Is on the Building
Regarding 87 Leonard, generally a sponsor has equity in the deal and would also be considered an owner. Perhaps Magnum is the developer and Deutsche Bank is either a capital partner or lender. Either way, Magnum would still be an owner. — charango on Seen & Heard: El Vez Is on the Building
