Will have to pull out the contact sheet, but I don't think I took any photos down there at the time... — Robert Ripps on Loft Peeping: The catacombs of 152 Reade
A wondrous day in Tribeca made even more magical by the way you captured it. As always, you have made the world and all who inhabit it even more interesting, soulful, and lovely by the force of your talent. Brava! Brava! Ten bows... all of them deep. — F on Who does Halloween better than Tribeca?
I’m so sad to see this. I had to go to Cornell Weill almost every day for a few weeks a few years ago, and I will never forget that warm, delicious smell wafting through the lobby and enticing me in for a hot coffee and pain au chocolat. I would look forward to the hospital visits because of Arcade! Thank you for the pride in your craft that we got to savor. You made a difference in my morning each time I came! — Sherry El-Gawly on Arcade Bakery will be closing — for good — in August

Any idea what’s going on with the construction project at the corner of Murray and W. Broadway? — Steve Lewis on In the News: Power brokering at Yves
Robert, this is so interesting!! I was actually pacing the floor underneath there and it definitely seemed like we were way past the edge of the sidewalk. Amazing. If you find those pictures, share with me! — Tribeca Citizen on Loft Peeping: The catacombs of 152 Reade
Twenty years ago, I shot some pictures for John Petrarca of his staff on the roof of the building that would soon be torn down to build the townhouses on Reade Street. While we were there, they showed me the tunnels underneath- they said they used to extend all the way under the street and connect to the building on the other side, but the connection had been severed years prior to that, I think when the other building was torn down? Perhaps this is where the rumor of cow tunnels in Tribeca comes from? His untimely passing was a great loss to Tribeca. — Robert Ripps on Loft Peeping: The catacombs of 152 Reade
Absolutely love these photos. Brand storytelling makes sense because these prints feel like poetry. It’s all so visually stimulating. Not only are the subjects captivating, the full picture feels refreshing. True art. Thank you, Kim! — Melanie on Who does Halloween better than Tribeca?
I LOVE theses pictures so much—they really capture the feel of last night! and we love the photos on your website, too. @kimberlyWang, do you do portraits? We’re looking for someone to take creative pictures of our family ... — Diane on Who does Halloween better than Tribeca?
Such vibrant photos! Love them. The yellow photo is brilliant. Taken together, they really capture the facets of Tribeca. Checked out the site (eardog.com) too. Stunning portraits. — R Marinaro on Who does Halloween better than Tribeca?
Pam! Thank you for sharing my impressions from the evening! I love how our neighbors get decked out every year and gather to stroll the streets of our little neighborhood within this sprawling city. Everyone I encountered gave my camera some Halloween cosplay-attitude. Fantastic! Watching the kids tear around the 'hood, goofing with their friends, squealing with delight at their haul....it's just a complete joy, every single year. A deep bow to our Tribeca small businesses that swung their doors open wide, like Josh and Melody at Interlude, the team at Duane Park Patisserie, 180 the Store, Scanlan Theodore....all generously doled out treats with big smiles....Gotta love Tribeca Spirit. — Kimberly M.

Thank you! — Tribeca Citizen on Seen & Heard: Artists Space to open in December
The plaque on Warren St is to memorialize Ivan, who was for many years a Super for lots of the small buildings on Warren Street - he passed away suddenly last year. We have since moved away from that block, but it's really nice to see him remembered this way. — EL on Seen & Heard: Artists Space to open in December
John also renovated the small triangular building on the corner of Reade, plus designed and built the black steel townhouse to the west of the ones pictured (He had the front of the building fabricated into one large piece and brought in by truck) Reade street was closed so he could lift the facade into place. In addition he was instrumental in the narrowing of Greenwich Street. Traffic used to fly down Greenwich to avoid bottlenecks on West Street. He, and other early community activists, got approval to narrow the street and they raised money (sale of bricks) to partially fund it. He was a very creative, and devoted to the community. He is missed. — G on Loft Peeping: The catacombs of 152 Reade
Update - NOTHING IS HAPPENING. After discussing this situation with folks who work in contracting, I was told that the stones should be redone by a company from Europe who knows all about cobblestones and the laying distance, etc. Why is the city not doing anything about this terrible situation? Telling us that Harrison Street has sink hole as a cause for the cobblestones being misaligned is not accurate. And if that's the case, then all of lower Manhattan is in deep trouble. This is incredibly frustrating -- and unacceptable. I will contact the CB board to see what is happening. — Diane Lapson on Eyesore of the Week: Greenwich Street cobbles
What great spirit in spite of the downfall. The music was floating around the neighborhood. Making the best of a soggy situation! — TG on Halloween hijinks in Washington Market Park

As a parent who basically lives at Pier 40- this is very exciting. — DaniB on Turf at Pier 40 to get an overhaul
Very excited about Alamo drafthouse coming online. One Wall is also getting a Whole Foods. Im glad I live in Tribeca and not down in FiDi but I am happy to see a more residential feel to that area. I think it creates a better home for all. Does anyone know what is going on at the City Hall space on Duane?
