It's disappointing that this entire plot of land has to be used for a roundabout. Couldn't they just terminate the Holland Tunnel exit at Laight and Varick st and repurpose that whole square as green space? — Chris B on Broken Spaces: Imagining a new four-acre St. John’s Park
The racial politics of these endorsements trouble me in general, and especially for a neighborhood that is not primarily Asian. Also, Chin has long been a political hack who favors developers and is not responsive to any but her Chinese constituents. Do we really want that to continue? I’m wildly disappointed in Yang if this is what he’s about. We lived through problematic ethnic politics during the Dinkins administration - I don’t want to see a return to those bad old days. Diversity is good, ethnic politics is a day whose time has long passed. — A. on Seen & Heard: Indoor dining in time for Valentine’s Day
This one may be inside the Icon Parking garage on Greenwich Street #335 I believe? There are several in Tribeca, regards, Sonia — SONIA STOCK on Where in Tribeca?
Hi, Is this on the inside door of the Park Fast parking garage at 88 Leonard Street? There are two one on the outside and one on the inside that is black on white?Thanks, Sonia — SONIA STOCK on Where in Tribeca?
There is a scandal brewing with LabQ. These vans park, you assume they are trusted. I also was tested at pier 11 on Jan 26. And no results 5 days later. They are still getting away with promoting 24 hr turnaround on their website. I’ve tried to get city/ media attention and no one seems to care how wrong this is. Maybe Tribeca Citizen can take the story :) — Shannon on Working the line at CityMD

re margaret chin: she is a career politician. why not let her go out into the real world and get a job like the rest of us and let someone else be on the city council. these positions were not created with the intentions of having someone serve as a career! its time to drain the swamp! — debra on Seen & Heard: Indoor dining in time for Valentine’s Day
Contact your state senator? What a laugh!. Please - go ahead and try so that you can add to your list someone to vote out of office for someone else that is better and responsive. My alternative suggestion is to ask a few of your nephews or grandchildren work on arranging an appointment for you. They could certainly navigate websites and call around for you. It would be easy for them. I'm sure they would be happy to do if you made them aware you need HELP. Sometimes older people forget to ask for help and younger people to automatically offer it. If you have a younger relative in the city, a helpful one may even wait for you in a line for you or something like that to make it more convenient for you. If you feel that you can't ask a relative, ask your church. — Anonymous on Finding a vaccine in the neighborhood
Hello Friends of Dr. Nisar Qurashi, Like many of you I've seen Dr. Qurashi shortly after he opened his practice. When he joined NYU Langone on Trinity Place I followed him. I will always remember his warmth and gentlemanly demeanor — always kind, caring and gentle. It's been almost two years and I nearly gave up contacting his family but today I saw this article and I'm hoping to contact his son Judge Zahid Qurashi, or his brother Dr. Abid Qurashi. If anyone has an address of either could you please send it to me? Be well, Chris Lione christopher_lione@yahoo.com — Chris Lione on Dr. Nisar Quraishi dies from the coronavirus at 74
FYI, Plaza M Spa has signage in the window at the former Babesta location at Brookfield stating it will open there this summer. — Christy on Babesta will leave Brookfield Place
Love catching Charles at Opera at the Five & Dime on Wednesday nights. — Tara on Seen & Heard: New York we love you
Thank you! Please keep us up to date on anything Ecco! related. I pray everyday they reopen somewhere again downtown. So sad there gone, but happy he got out before Covid hit. — Darren on Seen & Heard: Greet the groundhog!
It was a fun and spontaneous moment. Kinda cool that it was documented. I hope to be doing this kinda thing regularly during this time of Covid. — Charles Coleman on Seen & Heard: New York we love you
Using the same name might be a good policy. The other question is whether the comments should be moderated at all to avoid degenerating into trading insults. — Marcus on Skateboarders discover Bogardus Plaza
This made me smile. I always see him never knew he sang!! Will go also to watch him sing! — Native on Seen & Heard: New York we love you
Thank you Tribeca Citizen for the lovely piece on Finlay and Gage and David Gage String Instruments. We look forward to greeting our neighbors at our new space and to the return of Live, in person Music everywhere! One minor correction: we raised a daughter, Mollie, and a son, Isaiah in Tribeca. They have both always been a part of our business -- in fact literally slept among the instruments when we started it all in our loft . — Judy Epstein Gage on Old Kid on a New Block: Finlay + Gage
We wish David and Judy all the best in their new location. Agree with Madeline that they are one of the reasons that Tribeca is a great place to live and work. Good luck in your new endeavor, Best, Dan and LiWah Reade Street. — Dan Alterman on Old Kid on a New Block: Finlay + Gage
If indeed skateboarding is not permitted in this plaza, then that should settle this debate, no? Also, I wonder if this site could change its protocol and require that people who post always use the same name. The way it is now, what looks like comments from ten people might, as James suggests, really be from one single person. Just a thought. — SW on Skateboarders discover Bogardus Plaza
You can search the Municipal Archives directly here, or use this site that a software engineer developed using the same photos. — Tribeca Citizen on Old Kid on a New Block: Finlay + Gage
Brilliant!! — SW on Seen & Heard: New York we love you
It is going to be really beautiful. — A2 on Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in final stretch — after 20 years
Anyone have good historic photos of Walker Street? Curious what it was like in different eras. — Marcus on Old Kid on a New Block: Finlay + Gage
Yup. I just cried. Tears down the cheek. How amazing. I’m so glad this treasured moment was captured! — j. on Seen & Heard: New York we love you
Partial responsibility goes to the city for not preparing for this in advance by equipping the rails or steps (or anything the skaters would grind) with skater-proof welded bolts every 3 feet or so. Simply done. Any retired (aka: old) skater sees this coming with any new plaza or park (ie, wow, that'll be fun to hit. But I'd break my ankle.). Scouting a street spot outside of skate parks is a thing, a part of the sport itself -- but the challenge of this hunt is also part of the sport. If the city's dumb, the city loses. If the skater can't skate because the city was smart enough to weld bolts, the skaters smiles and move on. — j frank p on Skateboarders discover Bogardus Plaza
So happy that you stayed in TriBeCa. Good luck with the new location! — Jackie Sencion on Old Kid on a New Block: Finlay + Gage
