Sad to see it go. The site of many memories, margaritas, and dance parties with fellow denizens of the Tribeca Gallery District. Looking forward to a final send off and, perhaps, some tears of mourning. — Bradford on Belle Reve will close at the end of this month

I was never a fan of the food there. Like most TriBeCa restaurants these days, the food is egregiously priced whilst being terribly subpar. Bring back the pizzerias. — tribecagoth on Belle Reve will close at the end of this month

Tribeca Dental Design all the way. They've been caring for my family for years and we've been doing great. They're the best. — Noah on Dentist coming to Greenwich and Duane

I wish we still had trolleys (or new modernized streetcars) in the city. Other cities have added new modern streetcar lines. Could it happen here? There was a proposal to re-build the 8th Street streetcar line, for example: https://www.villagetrolley.org/proposal.html — Marcus on Progress finally for lot on Canal and Varick

I believe that demapped piece of Sullivan Street was part of the Grand Street trolley route. https://tribecacitizen.com/2019/10/21/construction-update-the-remnants-of-streetcars-on-vestry/ — james on Progress finally for lot on Canal and Varick

Welcome to the neighborhood! — Marcus on Gallery coming to long-empty space on Duane

Wonder what's going to happen with Trinity Boxing? Gallery is a welcomed addition, looks great! — J Roy on Gallery coming to long-empty space on Duane

It's a fact that the bike path along the West Side Hwy. is not always that crowded. Of course there are times when it can be, but it is definitely not the norm. I ride my bike on it frequently and I very rarely have an issue with anything other than mopeds, scooters and e-bikes, which are supposedly restricted. Oh, and the occasional walkers who (for whatever reason) prefer to walk on a designated bike path as opposed to a promenade specifically designed for walkers. I'm also sick of hearing how difficult it would be to enforce the no moped, scooter & e-bike restriction on the bike path. That excuse is getting real tired. I guess it's also too difficult to enforce regulations that require moped and scooter operators to be licensed and their vehicles registered, right? It is the law, but what the hell, let's just continue to allow them to ignore any & all traffics lights and signs. One way street? No problem. Just allow them to continue to travel in any direction they want. Sidewalks are for pedestrians? How silly of us to think that. Let's just continue to allow them to travel at 25 MPH as they zip past everyone (including the elderly, people pushing strollers, walking children, etc.) on the sidewalk. If they're licensed, they belong in the street with other licensed vehicles. If they're not licensed, they don't belong...period. Instead of introducing silly fixes to act as bandaids (such as removing a lane of traffic on a heavily trafficked highway), start by eliminating the core problems. — P on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

YES!!! Bicyclists, should use busses and subways, car owners should continue to use their cars. This is a brilliant well thought out comment for improving congestion in NYC!!! Even better congestion pricing for bikes!!! EVERYONE knows that bikes cause most of the congestion in NYC. It's a shame that logic and intelligence like this is wasted in a silly forum, probably should consider a career in politics. — News Flash on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

Great news, we need more bicycle infrastructure. The West side bike path is a roaring success and is actually the most used bike path in all of the US, as such we should support and expand this success. Everyone predicted doom when a Brooklyn Bridge car lane was dedicated to cyclists... guess what, it's fine and as a result both the pedestrian path and bicycle path are safer. I'd assume the path would need to be on the west side of the highway though as building it on the east would have it broken up with cross streets every block somewhat reducing the usefulness of the thruway. — Harrison on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

I think ‘congestion’ is the wrong word choice, as that means very different things to cyclist vs those in automobiles. Anyone who has biked on the Westside BikeHighway on a nice afternoon knows that there is “capacity” issues and a myriad of dangerous conflicts. The real problem is that e-Bikes and “other form of micro-mobility treat the existing bike as a traffic free highway thereby making it unsafe - cruising up to 35 mph, passing indiscriminately, not stoping for pedestrians in crosswalks, and unsafe speed changes while being on their phone. So I’m in favor of the BP plan *if* it moves e-Bikes back on to 9A where they logically belong. — Dave on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

agreed. funding for this needs to include enforcement of bike laws -pedestrians (any cyclists) would be a lot safer. — christine sciulli on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

Since we are indulging ourselves here, another rationale was the time it takes to bus prisoners to court. Bring the courts -- or at least some of them -- there too. The city could have developed the site on White Street to pay for it all. — Tribeca Citizen on Demolition on White Street jail damages neighboring building

Our government is reluctant to arrest people who assault people on the street or the subway. No one is going to be arrested for violating traffic laws. — Reademan on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

I might think about supporting this idea when cyclists are required to be licensed and start obeying the traffic laws, ie obeying traffic signals, staying off sidewalks, etc. — Makes You Go Hmmmm.... on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

Dogs are less disruptive and better behaved than most children. I choose to go to the tin building instead of other really good restaurants in the area because they are dog friendly. I also encourage all out of town guests to check this place out because it’s so cool. Love this addition to the area and hope they always stay dog friendly. — Tanya on First Impressions: The Tin Building

Tribeca Citizen: Right - could build a therapeutic detention facility on Rikers with humane design, proper medical and rehab services, recreation space etc. And free transit for families - Ferry per your suggestion. Or free shuttle buses. Could also use some space to build a residential rehab facility for people arrested but released pending trial and who are seeking rehab. And/or a half-way house type housing for people who have no place to go. Also where will COs park in Manhattan? Many live far away, must drive, have long shifts. — JLA on Demolition on White Street jail damages neighboring building

Rikers will be sold to the highest bidder for the newest in luxury real estate... — Neighbor on Demolition on White Street jail damages neighboring building

The issue with traffic on the west side highway has nothing to do with how many lanes it has, it has to do pinch point gridlock at the tunnel entrances..... So yes, more space for bicycles. — A Tribeca Parent on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

This is always my argument too (no one listens). You could rebuild Rikers with all the new progressive architectural approaches to jails on the island's current open space, and it would be much much easier in every regard. Then tear down the existing Rikers. Then develop a better ferry system for families to visit, rather than what the city makes them do now: take private vans from Burger King parking lots. — Tribeca Citizen on Demolition on White Street jail damages neighboring building

If it is any consolation, bus riders are actually 3rd class citizens — JZ on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

I don’t drive but funny how my bike neighbors - who’d like to eliminate vehicles and profess to care about the environment - get so much e-commerce delivery.... — JZ on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes

Just wondering: Rikers has outdoor recreation and green space - not seeing that there will be any in a high-rise jail. The logic for borough jails was to make it more accessible for visiting family. But people will be housed where they committed the crime. Many committing crimes in Manhattan actually live in other boroughs..... — JLA on Demolition on White Street jail damages neighboring building

E-bikes and motorized scooters aren’t currently allowed on the HRP bike lanes, but they’ve taken over that path nonetheless (in large part because there’s no safe alternative for them along that stretch), and have made it quite unsafe for pedestrians and recreational bikers alike as a result. The point of the dedicated micro-mobility lanes on the highway is to re-direct those electric/motorized users there, in order to return the HRP bike paths back to recreational bike use only (of course, will need some enforcement, but there will no longer be any excuse). We’ve designed our streets in the U.S. almost entirely for automobiles; we’re just so accustomed to being second-class citizens as pedestrians and bikers that we don’t realize how inefficient and nonsensical our existing approach is. — Reader on Reade on Borough president has a plan for highway bike lanes
