So sad that it’s going to close its iconic. — Brad on Issey Miyake will close store after 24 years

Crazy. Frank Gehry just died today. https://nyti.ms/48DuKiy — Bianca Alexis on Issey Miyake will close store after 24 years

We can only hope. — Makes You Go Hmmmm.... on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

As long as NYC fails to enforce its own laws and allows the city to continue in a state of permissive lawlessness, we can expect to see more of this outside enforcement. — Marcus on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

Mulciber thank you. Sanitation is a rationale often used to justify fascist strategies. Witness the attacks on "cartels" in the Caribbean by Pete Hegseth with no proof of guilt whatsoever. Control the situation on Canal Street? Yes please! But don't do it in a way that would have previously been called un-American! — Heide Fasnacht on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

435 mature trees getting taken out is brutal — Peter G on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

I am not totally seeing where Gateway/Brookfield and restaurants on the water fall into this timeline. Can someone kindly advise? — Erin H on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

Whatever happened, the illegal bazaar is alive and well as of fifteen minutes ago, couldn’t even squeeze through the crowds to get home. As we all know this is beyond the reach of NYPD and no elected officials after Bloomberg ever went near the problem. We are left to our own devices and the ideology du jour. Shame, ‘the greatest city in the world’??!! — R. on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

I always found it somewhat of an eyesore, to be honest, but, even so, I have to agree with you that its destruction was completely unnecesary and sad, and that they should have reached to the community before taking such a final decision. — JM Mendez on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

That the planners of this huge enterprise could not find a better solution than simply demolishing Ned Smyth's beautiful sculpture / installation on the esplanade is an outrage. Evidently no community input was felt necessary. Just wreck it. — George Bacon on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

Well written mulciber. I couldn't agree more. — grlaeris on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

Let's be clear about terms here. Many say they want to "clean up" Canal Street. Having lived in the neighborhood since the mid-70s I'm all in on that. To me that means clear, clean, safe streets. I think that's the job of municipal law enforcement and sanitation. ICE represents neither of those things. As currently deployed, ICE is — again, let's be clear about terminology — a secret police force; shock troops that sweep in, masked, and pull people off the street, handcuff, and detain them, without a hint of due process. ICE equals terror troops, such as those deployed by tyrants in many lands in many eras. It seems to me that that is what some people are saying is acceptable to "clean up" Canal street. I could go on and offer my opinion that human beings are not objects to be "cleaned up", but that's an argument so fundamental it's embarrassing to have to engage in it. We've seen shock terror troops deployed before in history, and civilized people understand what that represents. It's unacceptable in civil society. — mulciber on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

This is a terrific story about a wonderful and gifted family. Bravo! — Tracy Nieporent on Art in Tribeca: The paintings of Stephen Grillo

Absolutely; the big fixes will take decades to plan and build in any event, and in the meantime all of the mitigation measure you've highlighted will be essential (and have the added benefit of bringing additional green space to TriBeCa!). — Reader on Reade on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

This will wreck our neighborhood -people moving out of apartments en masse Sadly time for us to go after many happy years — teresa waldron on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

Until we have an infrastructure commitment from city, state or feds (Army Corps of Engineers), Tribeca will need to actively work on projects that increase absorption of storm water - park expansions (like Friends of Duane Park, Barnett Newman Triangle, Finn Sq), rain gardens, bioswales, green roofs, containerized trees. — KPDNYC on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

All comments here are moderated as comments are at all media sites. — Tribeca Citizen on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

Nooooooo!!!!! The best, friendliest, kindest wine shop in Tribeca. Great selection, great suggestions. They will be so missed:-( — Talia Attaille on Frankly Wines has closed

To be honest Canal Street needs this, and it also needs a lot more cleaning up than just what ICE can do. The NYPD needs to step up and enforce our laws. — Matt W on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

I hear there will be many more in the coming months. — Matt on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

Based on current flood maps and historic topographical ones, most of the flooding is going to move east along Canal Street and then south down West Broadway (there will also be flooding along West St and Washington St for perhaps obvious reasons). Those are (and have always been) low ground; Canal Street was formerly a canal and before that an inlet that, during high tide, connected to the Collect Pond’s predecessor spring north of City Hall, and much of TriBeCa and SoHo was swampland. So yeah, TriBeCa is already in the cross hairs of any errant water but the BPC flood gates will almost certainly make it worse for us! — Reader on Reade on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

In the last photo/rendering: Where does the water go? into Tribeca? Did I read this right? Water is overflowing the river and is coming down from the north. The barriers keep the water from going south into BPC. I'm assuming the river is overflowing and the water can't go west, back into the river. Again, where does all that water go? — G on The plans for the reconstruction of Rockefeller Park

So who ordered this? Ricky Patel? — Heide Fasnacht on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street

This is sad news as Liz brings a bright and caring energy to the block. At least we can still see her at her best at Della's. — FiDiGal on Frankly Wines has closed

Crazy to see this in nyc but I guess I understand given how bad canal street has become — Smitty on In the News: More ICE on Canal Street
