  • I just returned from his memorial. To his friends, Nick was a gift. Not to mention the smartest person I’ve ever met, at least amongst artists. — Bruce Ehrmann on In the News: Rock writer Nick Tosches has died

  • What is wrong with our justice system that Adam Lublin continues to get out on bail? He is clearly a danger to the community, and yet The Post reports that, once again, he's been released on bail (twice as more victims came forward). It's a disgrace. — Why bail for Adam Lublin? on In the News: 9/11 Tribute Museum losing its home

  • As a friend of mine lives in 20 Broad, I considered renting in the building last year, but decided against it when I learned Sonder would be operating there. What has happened there is terrible, and my thoughts are with those affected. But I have even greater concerns about this situation and the risk it poses to neighbors and others. The NYSE is next door—quite literally. One must understand that the stock exchange is a soft target. There are vehicle barricades surrounding the entire periphery for precisely this reason. The stations are manned with guards and security dogs carrying out searches for explosives. But what is to prevent someone from booking through Sonder, bringing in suitcases full of explosives, walking out and detonating the bombs remotely to take down the NYSE and surrounding buildings? Sonder carries out no background checks, and pedestrians with luggage—unlike vehicles—are not screened in the area. Homeland Security needs to be alerted to Sonder’s activity in the building. No one wants to see an incident here. — Lena on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • Regarding the 9/11 Tribute Museum, it is not the "building" that is for sale, but the actual retail space which is a Condominium unit. — Luis Vazquez (FiDi Fan Page) on In the News: 9/11 Tribute Museum losing its home

  • The Sonder units outside of the first 9 floors are only for long-term rentals, meaning a minimum of 29 days. Those are the people that get access to the amenities, and they have been more strict recently to make sure short-term Sonder guests are not using them. I have seen them kicked out of the lounges. The long-term renters should go through a background check just like residents had to, though. — Susan on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • The Sonder unit that was robbed was somehow rented out for 1 night for a birthday party. It doesn't make sense because Sonder is specifically for long term longs (30+ nights) and NO parties are allowed. I'm surprised Sonder isn't taking this incident more seriously given the AirBNB shooting in the news. — Olivia on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • The worst thing about this is that Bold NY and MetroLoft NEVER disclosed the presence of Sonder or any short term rentals happening in the building to renters during showings or at LEASE SIGNING! This is illegal, unethical, and down right slimy business and should be punished to the maximum extent of the law! — John on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • So the six individuals got past the 24 hour concierge and entered the building and got on an elevator monitored by a camera and targeted a short-term rental on the 9th floor. These short-term rentals in residential buildings are a menace. — Tribeca Mom on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • My daughter lives in this RENTAL apartment building. No condos here.....residents were told that SONDER would occupy lower floors only with no access to common areas. SONDER units are EVERYWHERE in the building on all floors and they do have access to all common areas. Metroloft has not been honest with tenants at all....expect a mass exodus when renewals start happening...... — Peggy on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • So sad to learn, although I am late. I don't know what I would have done if not for the wonderful community at South's while I lived in NYC. It was always open, warm and had an open seat when I had nowhere else to go. This was the best bar I have ever been to. Miss you all, especially the smiles and Chicken Fried Steak on Tuesdays. — Carolynn Newstrom on Souths Is Closing

  • Im more interested in finding out how those guys got in. Sonder runs their "hotel rooms" remotely for the most part. But regardless I assume the building has a doorman? — Patrick on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad

  • 20 Broad is a RENTAL building and NOT a Condo. Nonetheless, most people don't want to feel like they live in a hotel, even if they don't own their apartments. — Luis Vazquez (FiDi Fan Page) on First Sonder, then an armed robbery at 20 Broad
