  • Thank you for this post. I follow Tribeca Citizen for information about what is going on in our community. I appreciated learning that the local Starbucks has opened as I hadn't heard that elsewhere. Appreciate your timely updates about a wide range of topics in our community. — Tim on Starbucks has both closings (for good) and openings

  • Yes, I saw all the murals coming out yesterday, so I think it is indeed closing. — Tribeca Citizen on Despite signs, Warren 77 is not closing for good

  • Dr Quraishi was my doctor for nearly 20 years first in private practice at TMC and then at NYU. He was a calm steady presence, always asked about my personal life, and even smiled occasionally at my feeble attempts to make him laugh. He epitomized “care” and beamed about his two successful sons often. I am thankful for having Dr. Quraishi as my GP, and I know I can speak for many others in saying he will be missed. — Matt Majer on Dr. Nisar Quraishi dies from the coronavirus at 74

  • Nice walking tour from Brooklyn Heights to Tribeca in yesterday's NY Times, with two Tribeca architects "Brooklyn Bridge, Star of the City: Here’s a Tour" https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/06/arts/design/brooklyn-bridge-virtual-tour-virus.html — James on COVID-19: These five weeks in pictures

  • I was about to write to him today when I noticed the NYU Langone logo and opened the envelop with the sad news. He had been my doctor for several years, we learnt to know each other, often we exchanged about our lives and family. Very human, practical, not the type to 'overmedicalise' his patients, at the same time very experienced, his humanity and fondness blended with his expertise in a very unique way that I had never witnessed with anyone else before. My wife had started consulting with him recently, as well as a close friend. We are all so saddened. Farewell, dear Doctor. Gilles. — Gilles Bransbourg on Dr. Nisar Quraishi dies from the coronavirus at 74

  • Why are you giving a multibillion dollar company free publicity when people can figure out which locations are open on their own? Do a piece about independent places including ones you don't hit as this is "TriBeCa Citizen" not "Pam's Tribeca" (which this site has increasingly become and if so change the site name.) Stop being such a corporate shill. — Tribeca Citizen? on Starbucks has both closings (for good) and openings

  • Thank you for doing this, Kim. You have so much to share. And what a great way to support the relief effort. Cheers to you! — Stephanie Calmenson on Local photographer offers free webinar to benefit relief efforts

  • How is Lot Less an "essential business"? They barely sell food and drink. They certainly don't sell meat, dairy, or produce. Besides, that place is too big to reopen. — We need ALot Less people on Seen & Heard: Maman will start deliveries to Tribeca

  • I hear ya Bianca but cyclists use the bike lane and obviously ride so fast they won't give your mother the virus. That said they should wear face masks at public parks as should everyone. As for the runners I suggest you have your mother walk alongside the river out of the path of the runners. Approach a PEP officer to complain about them not enforcing the facemask rule if there is one. Write your city councilperson and Hudson River Park Trust. If you can spare an hour videotape a running path to count and record facemaskless runners to prove your point then offer it to Spectrum NY 1 News, AMNY, TriBeCa Citizen etc. Or just record them whenever and make sure all videos are timestamped. Create a Gmail and post it in this comment section and I'll write you with viable walkpaths for your mother. — Stop The Spread on Peter Panayiotou, the owner of Gee Whiz, dies from the coronavirus

  • I saw them loading all of the liquor inventory into a truck this morning. I'd say that's a pretty good sign they're not planning to re-open. — Warren on Despite signs, Warren 77 is not closing for good

  • you sure are good with that camera. — dianne talan on COVID-19: These five weeks in pictures

  • This is so sad So mad about how NY mismanaged this virus And how the very selfish young runners and bicyclists who refuse to wear masks impact older people who cannot fight the virus My 70 year mom is so afraid to take a walk bc the whole Battery Park and Tribeca esplanade has been over by runners huffing puffing shedding the virus This is so bad for elderly They have become immobile in their apartments When a 70 year old doesn’t walk in 2 months they may never regain mobility She used to take a long walk from south BPC to North on esplanade It’s now filled with 18 -30 year old runners NO MAsks sweating breathing heavily huffing puffing — Bianca Pepe on Peter Panayiotou, the owner of Gee Whiz, dies from the coronavirus
