Can't wait to see what the protestors do to the "racist" WW2 memorials. — JD on Odeon boarded up; several store windows broken last night

Revised Social Distancing Rules: DON'T: stand too close to someone at a grocery store, don't go to your job, don't go to the beach, don't go to the gym, don't attend religious services, don't get your hair cut, don't visit retail stores to shop and actually pay for your purchases. DO: gather in enormous crowds, loot and burn police cars. — PeterD on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

@jp- please explain? — Stevie on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Burning police cars is very peaceful. — Smokey on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Huh? — DK on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Megan and I moved to Tribeca for my job in 2015 and quickly fell in love with the Kitchen. Andy became my friend and would always stop what he was doing to welcome us. Trying to sober up from the night before or trying the new specials, Andy always wanted to make sure we liked it. We always did. We walked by the restaurant today and the sign said Love like Andy and it made my heart wish to see him again. His kindness and love will be missed greatly. Rest in peace friend. — Jonathan on Andy Koutsoudakis Sr., owner of Tribeca’s Kitchen, dies from the coronavirus

Yes, it's a restaurant. It is not a meeting space. — Tribeca Citizen on CB1 committee shoots down tavern for Saks space

Is it really necessary to have yet another space to meet? The mall itself has offices and conference rooms, a very cozy Starbucks, and several restaurants that are also nice to have a business meeting at. Not to mention mall-seating. Saks failed at this space because it seemed there was no real vision. Are they in the bar/restaurant business now? Hudson Bay is desperate to get a dollar any way they can, yet so many of their plans are ill-fated. Just give it up. — Elissa Conover on CB1 committee shoots down tavern for Saks space

Your reply makes something worse than no sense. Please stop. — JP on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Ugh, awful news. Quraishi was my family doctor for many years and I saw him after switching from our pediatrician and neighborhood friend, Bonnie Franklin. Thanks for posting this, Erik. — Gardiner Comfort on Dr. Nisar Quraishi dies from the coronavirus at 74

Your reply makes no sense in this thread. Try again. — Stevie on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

The protesters were not violent. — reality on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Hotels are deemed essential. https://esd.ny.gov/guidance-executive-order-2026 "For purposes of Executive Order 202.6, 'Essential Business,' shall mean businesses operating in or as: [...] "2. Essential infrastructure including [...] hotels, and other places of accommodation, including campgrounds. [...]" — james on The cost of living next to a construction project

First off, the protestors were not engaging with the police violently - try vice versa - so get your facts straight. Second, people were arrested for what? Peaceably protesting? If MINNEAPOLIS could let the precinct the four cops who murdered George Floyd are from be burnt to the ground NYPD could let people who are burning nothing march through the streets, ok? De Blasio fancies himself as being better than his predecessors Giuliani and Bloomberg but he is not. BTW it is time for a non-white NYPD commissioner for a city which has had a non-white majority for literally decades. Time the top cop reflects the city they serve. — D Xav on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Please say the reason for the arrests. — Heide Fasnacht on In the News: Protests for George Floyd

Tammy, just happy to see some life and business. — Native on Seen & Heard: More businesses coming to life

Native? That is my name. If you are smart and read all the comments I was responding to Jim, not you. If I own or rent what does it matter. Have a good weekend. — Native on Let’s close Duane Street to through traffic for summer

and NO I am not new to Tribeca Citizen. I know Jim has been around for a long time. — Native on Let’s close Duane Street to through traffic for summer

Neighbor, I took on Jim Smithers? really? I am a " precious" resident also. Living here over 30 years. He was rude and I answered him. Its over. Mind your business. — Native on Let’s close Duane Street to through traffic for summer
