This is wonderful news for Luis, his family, co-workers and everyone in the community. We will be so glad to see you return Luis. — amanda on Luis Fernandez from the Square Diner will be released within 24 hours

Very nice people working here. I stopped in to check it out and chatted with them. Got a fantastic fresh lemonad . — JS Miller on Catching Up With New Kids: Olive’s

We object to the removal of access to a rare civic center public space, an often-used pedestrian thoroughfare and valuable public art. How can the public be compensated by this direct loss to the public? New open space nearby? Investment in existing public space? Can CB1 intervene? Is NYS legislation necessary for this alienation? — Skip Blumberg on Feds will lock in courthouse plaza and public art

Ugh, death by a thousand cuts. It's a nice, quiet little courtyard area with some nice public art, and it's strangely a critical path for me to walk home from from work through the Seaport area to Northeast Tribeca where I live, because of the massive areas carved out and fenced off for Police Plaza and the Courthouses, plus the Brooklyn Bridge. Never mind that we have to put up with police cars parking on our streets (literally on our sidewalks) with no enforcement. Or the heaving morass of Canal Street fake bags and watches and electronics, which has been creeping South into the blocks between Broadway and Lafayette, and which the police do nothing about. Or Brooklyn Bridge itself, full of illegal vendors blocking the walkway and only occasionally cleared out by enforcement. — DG on Feds will lock in courthouse plaza and public art

I've tangled w/ Jan Lee on congestion pricing (he's anti, I'm pro) but I agree 100% with him here. His remarks here -- which originally appeared in Streetsblog's July 16 story you linked to -- are, sadly, telling. Also telling: the silence from CM Chris Marte. It's been nearly four weeks since the plaza was fenced off, and there hasn't been a peep from his office. PS: The Streetsblog story also has a pic of the Maya Lin sculpture that no one will now get to see. — Komanoff on Feds will lock in courthouse plaza and public art

We will be witnessing this move, straight out of the fascist playbook, more and more. — Heide Fasnacht on Feds will lock in courthouse plaza and public art

Best of luck to Madeline in her next chapter, but this will be a loss to the neighborhood. — Mary Amsterdam on Madeline Lanciani is selling Duane Park Patisserie

We will miss seeing Madeline in the neighborhood! Duane Park Patisserie has been such an important part of the community, especially for those of us living on the block. We wish her well in her next endeavor! — ReaderOnDuane on Madeline Lanciani is selling Duane Park Patisserie

I’m in agreement with you, the stuff didn’t taste fresh or have an authentic flavor to it. It’s likely because they ship their pastries from Astoria to this location, and we all know pastries are best served fresh. Nothing worse than something that’s been sitting in a case for hours, especially at $5+ an item — K Tribeca on Sneak Peek: Artion Bakery and Cafe

Agree to disagree with the review. While excited to try a much needed new spot/cafe in the area, the food unfortunately was a miss all around. All their staples were a bland miss. Pi Bakerie is infinitely better. — J Tribeca on Sneak Peek: Artion Bakery and Cafe

This brings back so many memories and good ones!! My mom used to always take me there at the end is the summer for back to school Fall gear then again for Winter gear! Very well missed! Wish the family would re-open in a new location in NYC. — Monica H on Flashback: The days of Tent & Trails

They also closed the one on Maiden & Water St. These locations were always so busy and cell phones are such a necessity that I can't understand these decisions. — Michael T on T Mobile on Greenwich has closed

It's light and air to legalize the residential lofts at 221-223 West Broadway. Practically speaking it prevents a vertical enlargement of 225. — James Bogardus on Terra building on West Broadway has been sold

I'm glad this great and unique location found great tenants.. I look forward to supporting them.. (and while I just discovered Cafe Clementine's great chicken salad sandwich, I think the opposite corner could compete if added (whatever happened to the chicken salad sandwich from scratch.. especially a Waldorf version!!, lol) — B.Thompson on Catching Up With New Kids: Olive’s

Hello, any news about their breakfast yet? I had asked them about it few months ago and they said not yet. — DT on Catching Up With New Kids: Olive’s

Awesome news. — SR on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood

Marcus there’s a Black Seed at Hudson Eats located at Brookfield Place 230 Vesey Street Hint: Get the “To Good to Go,” APP and you can get a bagful of their bagels (plus often cream cheese throw in too) for 6.99. Pick up between 2-2:45pm. GREAT Deal 😄 — Kiyo on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood

As a long time resident of Tribeca, there are now only two restaurants that I can comfortably eat dinner at without worrying about prices while enjoying the food and the atmosphere. Terra is one of them. I hope they will remain in the neighborhood. — K on Terra building on West Broadway has been sold

Better bagels than weed shops and empty store fronts. — Sandra on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood

Maybe I'm prejudiced by being their neighbor, but I think Zucker's bagels are great. wonderful veggie spreads and morning glory muffins also. But then I grew up with great Jewish deli's in Jersey, not high end Tribeca palates. — Jeff on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood

Amazing news! 2 years ago all we had in the neighborhood was Zuckers (which has seen a sharp decline in quality over the last couple years). Bring on the bagel wars!!! — Tribeca Dad on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood

Glad to hear it! Happy to not assume any such thing again. ;) — Tribeca Citizen on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood

Literal Breezeway. The wind is insane in the winter. Could use a blast of icy air right now, honestly. Come winter I’m sure I’ll be grumpy about it lol! — Melissa B on Nosy Neighbor: Where is the Goldman breezeway?

Both Apollo and Tompkins will have insufferable lines of younger folks eager to share their breakfast with social media followers. Let’s hope both locations allow for pick up options! Otherwise it’ll be one giant Gen Z queue after another — B on Bagel Wars! Another bagelry is coming to the neighborhood
