Remember Hurricane Sandy? Alot of flooding over on the westside downtown put the nail in the coffin for those redone cobblestones in sand...plus they did a really shoddy job — Anna Cox-Yongue on Nosy Neighbor: Just how many lanes are on Greenwich?

Thank you so much for the updates, Pam! Very much appreciated. Any chance you know the timeline for the construction work on Broadway outside of 26 Federal Plaza? — TribecaMom on The price of not having telephone poles

When will DDC finally depart Vestry Street? Its multimillion dollar project to redo and repave a street so inconsequential and untrafficked it is in the last priority tier for snow removal in a winter storm is well overdue for completion. Also, I don't know why DDC told you their project is not exempt from the holiday street work embargo, when they act at multiple locations as if they are exempt. — James on The price of not having telephone poles

This is a super-exciting addition to the area! Very excited for authentic Louisiana cuisine! — Jeff on Tiny’s (no relation) Gumbo Bar coming to 275 Church

Pam, thank you, thank you, thank you. It was worth (unintentional pun) devouring every word. Now I feel bad for my daily under-my-breadth grumble “how is this ever going to get done if nobody is out here working?” Too bad it will be opening in the winter. A Worth Street block party would have been a fun way for neighbors to celebrate the project’s completion. -P — The BlackSquirrel on The price of not having telephone poles

Mandates: good for society. Vax deniers during a global pandemic who have had their MMR and countless other vaccines: sad, and ironically pathetic — Mandates on In the News: Goldman will be strict on vaccines

I'm saddened to learn of Larry's passing. He truly was a personality in the neighborhood - a guy who made the SW corner of Warren and West Broadway brighter. We would exchange greetings when we saw each other on the street for years and years, and that's how I learned about his car cleaning services, which I used from time to time. R.I.P. Larry. COVID has claimed another neighborhood gem. — Jamie Propp on Larry Powell, a fixture for many on Warren Street, dies at 66

This one person keeps slugging woman and throwing them on train tracks yet keeps getting released due to bail reform He literally was biting a deaf woman This is insane 10am at Union Station 4/5/6 This is in the morning When is he stopped?

I grew up in yonkers and have seen this park before there was a real vested interest to fix it. Within the last 2 years they have been making very fast progress with all the restorations they said they were going to do and it looks great with even more to come! — Chris M on Field Trip: Untermyer Gardens

mandates, very sad. — Native on In the News: Goldman will be strict on vaccines

some rather have our city filled with crime than vote for an independent. Very sad. Just look with this Mayor has done. Time for a change. Don't care what party she's from. Criminals have more rights than us right now. Give me a break — Native on Maud Maron will run as an independent for City Council

Visited the garden last month. It's lovely. Our favorite is the Temple of Love. Also nice that it's free parking and free admission. — TribecaMom on Field Trip: Untermyer Gardens

You sound like an opinion piece in the NY Times — j frank p on Maud Maron will run as an independent for City Council

Maud is a joke hence why she did so poorly. My guess is that she splits votes with the Republican candidate and gets less than 10%. — Rose on Maud Maron will run as an independent for City Council

I'm afraid not. The tree planted for Nick is completely dead. — TC on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the tree in front of PS 234?

That shed has been up for way longer than that -- and I have asked the BOE for an answer on it at least 5 times. I will continue to ask -- and I will repoint the thing myself if they will let me. — Tribeca Citizen on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the tree in front of PS 234?

Great to see you promo Untermyer Gardens. I did a day trip there not long after the NYT ran this beguiling story on them by architecture writer Eve Kahn, in 2012: https://www.nytimes.com/2012/07/20/arts/untermyer-gardens-in-yonkers-is-being-tended-once-again.html. The Times also ran this fabulous photo gallery by Librado Romero: https://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2012/07/20/arts/20120720-UNTERMYER/s/20120720-UNTERMYER-slide-2EU4.html. In my opinion, your correspondent overstated the difficulty of getting there, as I did, by public transportation. Metro-North's Greystone station is just 41 minutes from Grand Central, and the walk to the gardens from there is shorter than you reported, if approached directly from the west via the Old Croton Trailway, rather than going the long way via Warburton Ave as Google Maps suggests. Yes, the walk is a tad funky, not to mention uphill, but it adds to the adventure and sense of discovery. — Komanoff on Field Trip: Untermyer Gardens
