The Italian food market was a red herring. Not sure what is cooking now, but I can ask around... — Tribeca Citizen on David Zwirner gallery taking over the M1-5 club space
I love this place! Got to go once before the restaurant shut down, and have been back a few times since. There are so many can't miss dishes. The wine list is incredible. The servers are so sweet! I want to try eating in a little house next time! Pro tip: cauliflower and black truffle — Alex on Catching Up With New Kids: Farra Wine Bar
Mayor prefers to use spaces in areas like this with high potential from real estate taxes for homeless shelters rather than optimizing revenue for city, Mayor was napping during economics 101 in school, an early napping trend that has continued through his absentee mayoral term. — S on In the News: Century 21 on sale
Now 11 Greene St is just down the block from a forthcoming men's homeless shelter! Talk about Yes In My Back Yard! — James on In the News: Century 21 on sale
Great addition to the neighborhood. world-class gallery will be a great anchor for this area! Any idea if the vacant building on the southwest corner of broadway and canal has any new plans? i think was originally going to be an italian food market? — John on David Zwirner gallery taking over the M1-5 club space
George I totally agree! I been reading about this. There is an agenda behind it. — NATIVE on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
They can not be relocated on Greenwich Street where Clementine is coming and a New Barber Shop has just moved in. There are plenty of empty areas to move them around Tribeca. My heart breaks for the Hideaway and other establishments that have this problem. — Native on Duane Street restaurants petitioning to get Citi Bike dock removed
My brother, who was a chef at the time of Bey’s wedding, catered some of the event. They actually did a pot luck reception and he helped to keep the food that was delivered by the guests warm. However, he also did the apps and some desserts which were partially stored in our fridge. Apparently, the venue did not have enough refrigeration... — JVZ on In the News: When Beyoncé and Jay-Z got married

Why should you have to move to westchester to feel safe when the neighborhood is safe to begin with? Just importing a problem and making it worse — L on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
Curley Effect strategy: they want to change the demographics of the city, to make it entirely welfare clients dependent upon the Democratic party who they will have to vote for: https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/shleifer/files/curley_effect.pdf — George Smith on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
TG it’s not about not helping people who are homeless. Maybe this place will have people who truly want to better their lives. But we are already seeing the assaults from other homeless hotels/shelters around here. Sorry but the crime statists are from when it comes from cop hater Deblasio. Hopefully this place will be different but I doubt it — Native on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street

Oh Canada. Our home and native land. Great news! — TG on Seen & Heard: Dine Around with Harry’s today
This is great news! I work down the street from a men's shelter in Mid Town East and you would never know. There comes a time that we citizens/tax payers change our way of thinking. I cannot bear walking by a person who is mentally ill and many times still has the hospital tag on their wrist, wandering around lost and alone. And yes, sometimes dangerous but most the time not. We must be compassionate and put our taxes where we claim our morals are. I am no huge fan of the mayor but the hysteria is out of the park. Crazy Rudy had 7700+ murders his eight years in office, Mike had 6600+ in his twelve years and Bill has about 2300. Chill people - take a deep breath and remember that the homeless issue isn't going to go away if we all don't work at it. And let's give the Bronx a break. Remember the HUGE drama over keeping the Sanitation garage and the salt hut on the West Side Hwy? I was all for it keeping it but you'd think it was the end of the world with all the complaints. Now? It is probably the coolest section of the whole darn highway. Breath, we're gonna be okay. Let's help some people in our neighborhood - our beloved city will be all the better for it. — TG on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
I'm not sure if this even gets to Brian - but here it goes. Brian I am a just retired Attorney/CPA - I love Blue Bloods and enjoy writing. I just wrote a draft of a story line for a plot for Blue Bloods. Part of the plot is based on real life experiences. Please let me know if this would be of interest.

I am facing a very similar situation at the location i am moving my business to.(previous location the building was sold) has there been any updates on there removal of the citibike docking station? — KP Sykes on Duane Street restaurants petitioning to get Citi Bike dock removed
Sandra I 100 percent agree. As a registered Dem I refuse to vote for anyone who has the same ideas as this So Called Mayor. I am not seeing anyone who will clean up our streets. Its very sad. I am praying for the city. — NATIVE on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
I need to respond to PV a relatively " Safe City"? Are you serious? You definitely don't live here. LOL, I don't think so. We are not all " "Rich" living here. So crazy how that is assumed. So horrible to even say! Like San Francisco is doing so well. Give me a break. There are working class lower and middle income living here of all cultures and races. We are all for affordable housing, we need that in the city. But putting more homeless men amongst us in our communities isn't the answer. Its about Homeless Mentally ill some addicts and some sex offenders all around us. We are surrounded. NO THE CITY ISN'T A SAFE PLACE AND ONLY GONNA GET WORST IF WE DON'T FIGHT THIS! We have enough homeless hotels and shelters all around us. So please don't tell us to go to Westchester. — NATIVE on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
I do hope he finds a location in Tribeca for his restaurant, my go to favorite. — Toni on The Paintings and Calligraphy of Billy Liu
Exciting. — j. on David Zwirner gallery taking over the M1-5 club space
From the article above, shelter with services — social workers, an employment program, a recreation component, 24-hour security. This looks like supportive housing. I am part of an org that provides these/ develops and services. In San Francisco they have been placed in higher end neighborhoods with no real issues. Candidates for supportive housing usually need to show some level of likelihood of success. Im sorry but my empathy for the people commenting is supper low. We are living in one of the best parts of a relatively safe city. If you want to support a strong public safety mayor, do so. I agree with that. But Tribeca, and Soho and lower manhattan are not gated communities. You want homogenous 'hoods? Go to Westchester. — PV on Neighbors organizing against homeless shelter for Wooster Street
