Maybe the Dogs can put on a Diaper and pants before going in. That's the only "gross" thing I can see about them being there. Because let's admit that no living creature smells fresh after a visit to the Loo with no Bidet. But in all seriousness it could be a health code issue. They don't use TP, they step in it, they shed a little more than we do, and their cute little noses have been places. Not that some humans aren't doing similar things (the soles of our shoes alone are disgusting) but how far can they go with policing things? If they really focused on what is entering restaurants there would be barely any customers at all. — KyleZ on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

Yes, good idea! Let's ban children and Margaret Chin from restaurants. — Jim Smithers on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

Are you suggesting the Health Code be revised to ban children from restaurants? That platform could win you Margaret Chin's Council seat! ;-) — James on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

A NY Post investigative report!! An exhaustively thorough and non-cherry picked account of the dog slobbering restaurant epidemic! Case closed. Nice work, James. You could replace the word dog with young child (with stroller) and probably find similar and many many more complaints. — Jim Smithers on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

Is it just dogs allowed or can I bring my service horse in? — Alan on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

NY Post "Dogs are slobbering all over NYC’s restaurants, and diners are pissed" By Doree Lewak March 5, 2019 "[...] doggy dining is driving some people barking mad. Restaurateurs say the wobbly balancing act between federal Americans With Disabilities Act rules and city Department of Health regulations have allowed a wave of non-service dogs to dine with impunity. "In June, the NYC Commission of Human Rights issued a new set of legal guidelines regarding people with disabilities. Among other things, it reminds restaurants that they are forbidden to demand proof of either a person’s disability or an animal’s use as a service companion. So, while hosts at Del Frisco’s and Morton’s say that only service dogs are permitted, they rely on customers’ honesty. "Henry Roberts, co-owner of Tribeca’s Two Hands, says he’s been seeing a lot more hungry hounds in his restaurant since the announcement. " “There’s really no way of policing this,” he tells The Post, as he eyes one dog at a table. “Now, people walk in with dogs of every shape and size. There’s nothing we can do — it’s a free-for-all.” [...] "But some diners are less than thrilled. " “It’s gross,” says Danit Sibovits, an Upper West Side lawyer. “I don’t want dog hair or slobber near my food.” "Unfortunately for her, restaurant workers feel powerless to stop the canine takeover. [...] " “No one wants to piss anyone off because they’ll go on Yelp to complain they won’t let you in with their service dog — or so-called service dog,” Hall tells The Post. “I think it happens in some neighborhoods more than others. The Upper West Side is a magnet for people who feel entitled to bring their pets or screaming children. And maybe Tribeca is the same.” "It’s true in the Meatpacking District, where Christopher Lee, who manages a restaurant he declined to name, is fed up with furry diners. " “It’s a restaurant,” he says. “You shouldn’t have a dog at a dinner table, but these days, you have a lot of people who get their dog certified as a service animal just to bring their dogs with them.” "Last week, Lee says, a customer hauled in her huge dog, promising he’d lie still. Even so, he says, “everyone kept tripping over this 100-pound dog.” Nor does size matter: Lee recalls another woman’s Maltese, who barked every time the owner took a bite — over the course of a two-hour meal. " “I had to give customers free champagne just to calm them down,” he says. “They’re paying a few hundred for a meal. You don’t want a dog yapping on top of you.” [...] "Back at Two Hands, Roberts is bracing for a snowball effect. “At a certain point, if everyone brings their dog in it could get a little crazy, and become a health thing if there’s animals everywhere. " “Who knows what’s next?” he says. “They’ll say, ‘What about cats? That’s not fair!’ It’s a slippery slope. I wouldn’t put it past these millennial kids.” " https://nypost.com/2019/03/05/dogs-are-slobbering-all-over-nycs-restaurants-and-diners-are-pissed/amp/ — James on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

The Amazon Go store at One Liberty is on Church (corner of Cortlandt) and not Broadway. :-) — Luis Vazquez (FiDi Fan Page) on Seen & Heard: Free benefit concert at City Vineyard

What's gross about it? — Jim Smithers on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

It's about time. People wrongly (and in my opinion selfishly) think the right to bring service animals into restaurants and food stores means they can bring their mere pets in. It's gross. — James on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

I would like this building complex if it didn't look awful. — Heide Fasnacht on First renderings for Disney’s HQ at former City Winery block

These renderings look great. Much better than the glass monsters at Hudson Yards and WTC. Nice job! — Marcus on First renderings for Disney’s HQ at former City Winery block

No. You cannot bring dogs into that area. There will soon be large signs posted in that area and in many prohibited parks around the city. I have also been told that the police have been told to start providing citations and fines for this and for dogs in restaurants. Apparently, many restaurants are now receiving B grades from the health department due to customer complaints about dogs and it has gotten the attention of some local pols who are pressuring police to crack down. — Pam on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

I am pretty sure just for the season. But there is a holiday market coming up, but from what I understand the vendors will be slightly different with new ones added in. That is on Dec. 8 from 11 to 5 and is called “Deck the Stalls.” — Tribeca Citizen on Seen & Heard: Richard Serra in Chelsea

Sounds like that miserable hag had nothing better to do with her time. — Anthony on Nosy Neighbor: Are dogs allowed in Liberty Park?

Why is the Fulton Street Stall Market closing? Does this mean for good or just for the season? It was so nice around the holidays. — JC on Seen & Heard: Richard Serra in Chelsea
