The employees & security aren't paid enough to confront shoplifters, who might not comply, or worse. Management knows this, probably. Try the NYPD then - at it's inception, it was conceived solely for the protection of rich people's property -- but even they might not care too much, knowing Bezos isn't gonna feel it. — j frank p on Seen & Heard: No more dogs at Whole Foods

Speaking of enforcement, I was at Whole Foods one afternoon last week, looking for something in the grain aisle. A man had "parked" his cart there and was filling up a gym bag with all of this groceries. He then walked right out of the store. Employees are all over the place doing their shopping and no one sees a thing. — Elizabeth on Seen & Heard: No more dogs at Whole Foods

Any idea why there is a police car parked on Tillary Street? They don’t seem to be saying anything to the people on motorcycles on the bike path. Of course, there used to be mini police cars parked on both sides of the Brooklyn Bridge and I always wondered what they were doing. Several times I reported incidents to them and they barely looked up at me. The Manhattan Bridge baffles me too. They have a bike path clear on the other side and cyclists do not use it often enough. I sm guessing it’s because of the big hill leading up to it. — JC on Brooklyn Bridge gets a dedicated bike path

This “newer” sign has been up at Whole Foods for awhile. There are still way too many dogs in the store and it is very hard to enforce. — JC on Seen & Heard: No more dogs at Whole Foods

Maud Maron deals only in fear-mongering and hate-spewing. She is anti-Democracy, anti-trans, anti-black, and anti-anyone who isn't wealthy, white, and heterosexual.

If it's anything like the Manhattan Bridge, bikes, electric scooters, and even the occasional motorcycle will still use the pedestrian-only path. At least there's the *potential* for enforcement since there's always a police car parked at Tillary Street. — KP on Brooklyn Bridge gets a dedicated bike path

This is good news however like K states there needs to be some enforcement for e-vehicles. The city has become the Wild West for cyclists, pedestrians and drivers since e-vehicles have come onto the streets and bridges (not including Citibike’s e version). The police and their scooters seem to take up room on the Brooklyn Bridge. And the people wandering into the bike lanes! There is no police presence on the Williamsburg bridge and I have seen a few e-vehicles ignore the signage. I love this city and this is good news but this situation is crazy - I’m surprised there haven’t been more accidents. When it comes to signage overall its not the city’s strong point either. — TR on Brooklyn Bridge gets a dedicated bike path

Absolutely right, K. I don’t mind so much the electric Citi bikes, they can’t go that fast, but the delivery bikes go so fast. If there were to be a collision, somebody would be really hurt or killed. — A2 on Brooklyn Bridge gets a dedicated bike path

Nope on the upper level. Chambers Street lights? Maybe. Don’t be bitter. This is good news. — LG on Brooklyn Bridge gets a dedicated bike path

I was wondering when you didn't post on Saturday, but now it is clear. I have always enjoyed the challenge, even though I was often stumped. Thanks for continuing the series (and thanks for the shout out as well). The gauntlet has been thrown down, and it is up to us to carry on. May the game continue! — Robert Ripps on Where is Where in Tribeca?

Bike paths throughout the city have electric vehicles- scooters, bikes, mopeds speeding on them without any rule enforcement. Electric vehicles must be registered and held accountable to road rules. Building bike paths while not addressing fundamental safety issues makes the roads, paths and city streets more stressful and dangerous for all. — K on Brooklyn Bridge gets a dedicated bike path

I personally can't stand that we have the chains that rap the Memorial from 730 pm till 8 am every day. This is the worst of it. the evening is always the most tranquil of times and this is when they lock it all down. It subconsciously makes the whole thing unfriendly, or consciously. They say for maintenance and cleaning. — darcy fulton on In the News: More dissing on Downtown

Layana is phenomenal! Her social media presence is one of the most engaging and innovative too! Love her content, the school’s growth, vision and creativity it inspires the kids. Congratulations and keep it up! — Fred Gouveia on New Kid on a New Block: Fashion Squad School

On the Citi Bike app, under your profile, you can actually see how many different stations you have visited (and view them on a map), and what percentage of the total that is. Which is great, but also kind of scary that they have this much information on you saved... — Robert Ripps on Seen & Heard: Protecting a symbol of power

I just attended a webinar for curbside composting, hosted by the Sanitation Department so that our building can get our compost bin. They said that plastic bags are allowable now. They have special machines that will extract plastic bags from the compost. That's kinda blowing my mind right now! Smells reduced! — Ann on Seen & Heard: Mulberry & Vine is open

I also agree - add adult classes too! — Natalie on New Kid on a New Block: Fashion Squad School
