K "Good Luck with the Fire Department"? What do you mean by that comment,: do you know something we don't know? — Concerned Citizen on Seen & Heard: Amazon returns at Whole Foods

Just to show you one of the nicer buildings that used to be at Canal and Varick until maybe 12 years ago, this was later a Chemical Bank, then a Chase branch https://digitalcollections.nypl.org/items/510d47e2-eec7-a3d9-e040-e00a18064a99 — Robert Ripps on In the News: A vision for Canal and Varick

I guess my grandparents were dumb to raise my father here, my parents were dumb to raise me and my sisters here, and I was dumb to raise my kids here...but so far, we have all survived and done just fine. Just out of curiosity, what hazard free place did you raise your kids? — Robert Ripps on Howard Hughes revises plans for 250 Water

I do not work for Tiny’s, nor do I have a reading comprehension problem. I live in the neighborhood and I enjoy occasionally dining at Tiny’s along with all of the other great restaurants we have. Since you’re an expert and so passionate, good luck with the fire department. — K on Challah Dolly x Tiny’s + matzo ball soup on Fridays

Roe had an option to buy the air rights at 261 Broadway, which expired after a number of years. I doubt that anything is going on there currently. — Broadway Neighbor on Potential plans for 600-foot building at 267 Broadway

Spitting in the midst of a pandemic is a whole other thing than at other times. Like those young women who coughed in that Uber. Context matters. — A. on Asian hate crimes, on our doorstep

K ..... Reading your response above leads me to believe that you either have very poor reading comprehension, that you are the owner or someone affiliated with Tiny's or that they told you to post this. In that case, let me explain this more clearly so even you can understand. I personally am aware of FIVE DIFFERENT TIMES that the fire department was outside of Tiny's BECAUSE OF FIRES INSIDE THEIR FIREPLACE! The most recent one was this past Sunday, March 14. Since I am not always outside or passing by, there could possibly have been even more than FIVE FIRES inside of their place that the neighbors and I did not personally know about. If they cared enough about safety and made sure the fireplace and chimney were cleaned and maintained properly this wouldn't be an issue. This does not surprise anyone in the area since rules do not apply to Tiny's and they ignore anything that they do not want to fix or take care of. This is not a matter of chimney smoke coming from them. It is a matter of their being uninterested in even maintaining and cleaning their fireplace before they set these beautiful landmark buildings on fire due to their negligence and their possibly even killing people and/or destroying businesses near them. In addition, their chimney smoke is directly under my friend's window and it comes out of THEIR chimney into HER apartment. It is not coming from anywhere else and they have ignored her each time she complained. So basically, it is not a matter of the number of people that want everything to close or everyone to leave. We only want you or Tiny's to close, you or Tiny's to leave or you or Tiny's to do the right thing. We do not want to leave, we want the inconsiderate people to leave. By the way, based on what you wrote, you seem to know about others that have these feelings about Tiny's too so there is obviously more to what I am complaining about here. — Mrs. Chanusha on Challah Dolly x Tiny’s + matzo ball soup on Fridays

Yes, let's shut down a wonderful local business because you don't want to smell chimney smoke. I'm fairly certain that isn't the only wood burning fireplace in lower Manhattan. I'm always amazed by the number of people down here that want everything to close and everyone to leave. Maybe it's time for you to leave. — K on Challah Dolly x Tiny’s + matzo ball soup on Fridays

J Frank I totally agree with you. Spitting needs to be a hate crime! — Native on Asian hate crimes, on our doorstep

1st Precinct should resist offering legal advice as if they decide what happens to charges after arrest. Plenty of examples of spitting charged as a hate crime. — J Frank P on Asian hate crimes, on our doorstep

I think Brandy Library reopens tonight as well. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMhc9-5Mkhr/ — person on The Patriot is back open

It’s heart breaking. AG James also urges New Yorkers who are victims and witnesses of hate crimes to call her office : 1-800-771-7755. — j. on Asian hate crimes, on our doorstep

so so sad and disturbing what is going on. Will be at the Rally on Sunday. This needs to end! — NATIVE on Asian hate crimes, on our doorstep

Not only do we not need more office space in Lower Manhattan, we definitely do not need more numbingly boring and intrusive architecture. — Heide Fasnacht on In the News: A vision for Canal and Varick

This much better than the Gene Kaufman garbage YIMBY posted about. Not sure where all the 250 Water Street NIMBYS are when you need em. — FiDiGuy on Potential plans for 600-foot building at 267 Broadway

I live across the street and saw fire trucks there FIVE times and these people should be closed down. G-d only knows how many other times they might have burned the block down when I wasn’t passing and I didn’t see the fire department! Not to mention, my friends live on Duane St. and they get all of their awful chimney smoke in their apartments, which they complain to Tiny’s about to no avail. They are really terrible people! — Mrs. Chanusha on Challah Dolly x Tiny’s + matzo ball soup on Fridays

Personally don’t mind. Murray is eerily quiet at night time and can almost feel a tad sketchy. If the bar is operated properly it could be a plus to have additional eyes on the street. — 111 Murray Resident on CB1 thwarts plans for a sports bar at 41 Murray

Wow, all those apartments at 270 Broadway will lose their south facing windows. Beware of lot lines! — DTWNNYC on Potential plans for 600-foot building at 267 Broadway

"Class A office space is planned to occupy floors seven through 25, with the podium levels measuring 19,000 square feet per floor and the upper stories spanning 16,000 square feet apiece with 16-foot-high ceilings." Just what NYC needs, another 300,000 SF of office space... — james on In the News: A vision for Canal and Varick

wow nice to know! I love David Yurman jewelry! My favorite store in Soho!! Never knew they are my neighbors! — Native on In the News: A vision for Canal and Varick

I'm pretty sure their plans are stalled. It's my understanding Roe has been trying to sell the property along with their development plans for a couple years now. — Makes You Ho Hmmmm.... on Potential plans for 600-foot building at 267 Broadway

That space is pretty small so it will just be another nail salon with some closed off space for facials. It will be one of the smallest nail salons in Tribeca, space-wise. And no, we don't need another nail salon in the neighborhood! — dtnycma on A private spa is coming to Reade Street

Well judging from the two responses here, I am happy to say the SEAPORT GUY has intelligence. Firstly, there is no good enough reason the Howard Huges Corp can give to have LANDMARKS change rules for them. They have no regard for laws, rules, or anything else involving our neighborhood’s schools or children. 345 feet as opposed to 120 is insane. Our neighborhood has enough homeless issues beginning with a murder right down the street. The area is filled with our children during the day. LANDMARKS - either stick to the rules or become totally useless, in which case you may as well dissolve the commission and go home. Show me one wonderful thing in the again newly renovated Seaport by Howard Huges that has enhanced the living conditions in our neighborhood. — Karen on Howard Hughes revises plans for 250 Water
