Hi-- Church Street Kitchen (between Duane and Reade) opened up on Tuesday around noon as quick as we could get there. We were open this morning by 6AM. We have hot coffee and our grill is working. We have ice and kept our foods at home last night, refrigerated. Serving breakfast, lunch and beyond. Be well, neighbors. — Dan Magan on Share Your Sandy
Late last night I read an article that says people are shopping by flashlight at Amish Market on West Broadway and Park Place. Also, Equinox at 50 Murray is closed. So, sounds like no lights in that area. — Karen on Share Your Sandy

I too was here in the 70's when Washington Market as it was called then was a wonderful neighborhood to live in with like minded folk being creative in many ways. I used to park my car in the empty lot which is now Washington Market Park when visiting my brother on Duane St. in the early 70s & then, when I too moved here in the late 70's my pickup truck was always parked along the empty lots which is now the Citi/Travelers buildings. What is now the Food Emporium was the Washington Market School with a wall of windows facing the park which eventually was walled up for the supermarket. IPN had a big banner or painting on the south wall saying something like move here & walk to work in Wall St., yes it was built for high income families but none came & so Mitchell Lama took it over, moved in welfare families & middle income families & charged decent rents with $100 garage monthly fees for those lucky enough to own a car. Then folks started realizing what a find the neighborhood was & things began to change. The sculptor living in the loft above me died & a young lawyer moved in at 6 times the rent & I could hear him every night coming home after the bars closed at 4 with a party of his friends & him saying isn't this place cool over & over again. We're still here although a lot of our friends who owned their lofts had to move from the neighborhood because the maintenance fees became unbearable so I guess we are lucky to still be here. — Rose on Tribeca in the 1980s
A 'roll call' on who has power would be great. Please weigh in if you have it now....or when you get it. Thanks! — MB on Share Your Sandy
I never lost power in BPC and I live in the Gateway 200 bldg. our grocery store and pharmacy and liquor store were open today. It was like nothing happened. — Christy on Share Your Sandy
The NYT said that BPC has power — Erik Torkells on Share Your Sandy
Jeff, unless those buildings have some kind of private generator, those buildings do NOT have power. Power is out for all of Manhattan south of 39th Street on the east side, and south of 31st Street on the West. I walked up to the UWS today and it's hopping up there. It was soooooo dark downtown last night. — KP on Share Your Sandy
