Actually, Smithers, I wasn't referring to you, but to Gregggg. I am glad you are defensive about your own Dbaggishness, however. It shows a healthy sense of self. — Doug on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

Looks like West Broadway, north east corner of Duane, above Balloon Saloon. — Robert Ripps on Where in Tribeca…?

Ooooh, an idiom insult...how novel. — Jim Smithers on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

Pot calling the kettle "Dbag"? — Doug on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

Haven't they ever heard of blinds?!!!!!!exhibitionists have no rights to there image. — Dizzy on Artist Wins Dismissal in Suit Over Voyeuristic Photos

Way too west for these prices. Try again. — Dizzy on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

Food at Atrio was very good. Not too expensive by comparative standards either. would recommend — Rohin on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

I love how Dbag "Gregg Ho-bag" is a Dbag... — Jim Smithers on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

@Gregg: That was my way of indicating dinner was comped. Too subtle? (We insisted on paying for our own drinks, I should mention.) — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

I love how Dbag Torkells brags "I was invited" to dinner… — Gregg Ho on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

Tribeca has become predominately residential, but there does not seem to be any changes to accommodate the needs of the residents. There is no alternate side street parking, limited metered parking, and municipal parking lots no longer exist or not available to the public. I understand the need for commercial parking, but the neighborhood west of Broadway is primarily residential with few businesses. More so, most of the commercial and metered parking spaces are taken up by cars with parking plaques - vehicles who are NOT on official business. Some cars don't event have plaques, but copies of department “manuals” or PBA-type cards in the dashboard. Those people should commute like everyone else. I do not have a car full-time, but sometimes it would be nice to be able to park on my own street during the work week after 7am and before 7pm. — Stella on Parking: An Endangered Species

Thanks for posting this story. It is good to know that something (other than money) is still being made in TriBeCa. — Judith on Made in Tribeca #4: Gill & Lagodich Gallery

That Atrio menu is still too expensive for me to make an effort to eat there. Too bad. I like quiet, comfortable restaurants. — Christy on Seen & Heard: Free Broadway Concert

We have neighbors who have free street parking as one of them works for OSHA. They use that car only for personal reasons but save $500/month because they have protected on street parking. The new mayor should take away free parking for everyone--use public transport or pay for parking like everyone else. — cami on Parking: An Endangered Species

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the parking spaces taken by the 1st Pct/NYPD. There is a huge allotment of the spaces which are reserved for police officers who drive into NYC from the suburbs. There must be at least 30 RESERVED spaces which rarely have NYPD patrol cars in them. As people are concerned about subsidizing TriBeCa residents (who are also taxpayers) with on street parking, what about providing free spaces for non NYC resident cops? While some of you complain about paking space allotted for government agency cars, at least these spaces accommodate actual government vehicles. Why should we provide free parking to non NYC workers to commute by car to OUR neighborhood. — CCC on Parking: An Endangered Species

Just an FYI- the public garage pictured above on North Moore Street used to be an FBI (I believe) garage, where they modified new cars for government use (and took the occasional high speed test run around the block) before they moved out maybe 20 years ago. — Robert Ripps on Parking: An Endangered Species

@Jolene good location spotting. I did see a reporter reporting on the story right between the Hudson (nee Jin) Market and Issey Miyake. Very scary. Strange coincidence with an invitation I saw today to the monthly 1st precinct community meeting. Meetings: The precinct community council meetings are held at 6:30 PM on the last Thursday of each month at the First Precinct ( 16 Ericsson Pl ). There are no meetings held July / August. — LVM on In the News: Police Seek Attempted Rapist

Sorry, I meant "Americans" - the quotations are important in that context. — Jim Smithers on Parking: An Endangered Species

Parking: The Price-Gouging of New Yorkers. Regardless if you have a car or not, they're here to stay. And if the city reduces parking spaces then more people have to pay the outrageous monthly prices of parking garages that have been recently rising (Edison Park Fast on Worth, cough, cough) on a monthly basis and the city tacks on another 10-18% parking tax. The city & local politicians (CB1?) does nothing to the price gougers, but collects all the parking taxes and every other tax imposed by the city. Can't wait for the HRP-NID tax. I <3 NY politicians and our fellow price-gouging Americans/American businesses. — Jim Smithers on Parking: An Endangered Species

We are pleased to report that the frame was trucked up to Corning New York yesterday, craned up to the third floor of the museum just after dawn this morning, and married to the painting this afternoon. It looks stupendous! Thanks to all who contributed, and thanks so much to Erik for the wonderful write up!

Looks like the camera caught him walking along the stretch on Hudson somewhere between Issey Miyake and Nobu. — Jolene on In the News: Police Seek Attempted Rapist

Dont know for certain where the attack took place, but have heard it was in North TriBeCa along Hudson St. — NYGirl on In the News: Police Seek Attempted Rapist

@Katie: Nope. — Erik Torkells on In the News: Police Seek Attempted Rapist
