The neighbors also complained about gunning of engines which rattles windows and sends plumes of exaust into the parks all day starting at 6am. EDC is pushing through a service without real planning or consideration; why not buy Hybrid boats which are better for the environment and neighbors? Answer given: we need to have it done before deblasio leaves office. Thats ridiculous. Why not charge express rates like an express bus vs a regular fare considering how highly subsidized the ferry system already is? No answers...The city doesn't have money to fix the MTA but has millions to add to subsidize more ferries? — Tk on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

The squirrels have been really bad since the spring. Time after time, I see people, mostly tourists, feeding them. The people that feed them seem to think it is very cute to feed the squirrels as they snap pics of them eating out of their hands. The squirrels are very aggressive and don't think twice about hopping onto strollers, into bags or onto to people's feet (and scratching at children's hands, like the incident last week). — JC on Squirrels on the attack in Rockefeller Park

Looks like a nice excursion along the waterfront. — perryo on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

Anyone interested in street art, but clueless about this piece like I was, check out the post. Dexter really enlightened me about Invader. Those French! So crafty. — Tribeca Citizen on Where in Tribeca?

You're totally right that it is for SI to get to Midtown, and not for SI to get to BPC -- the city is clear on that -- and you may be right again about Hudson Yards. I just thought it *could* have some utility for us as well to get to Midtown, especially if you live that far west, but perhaps not... — Tribeca Citizen on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

Thanks Dexter. Good to know. — Aidan Bach on Where in Tribeca?

Reade and Greenwich st. North side on the wall. Just restored. — Aidan Bach on Where in Tribeca?

With all due respect, I think that you’re missing the main point here. Yes, BPC residents are justifiably upset at (the federally required) ferry horns waking them up every time a boat arrives. But almost no one would actually need a $2.75 limited service ferry from Staten Island to BPC instead of a free Staten Island ferry that docks about a mile away, with much more frequent service. What’s actually going on here is that this is yet another subsidy for Hudson Yards - low cost transportation for workers who live in Staten Island to Hudson Yards, with a huge city subsidy, thinly disguised as a BPC ferry, with a BPC stop that isn’t needed. — Iris on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

Dexter, yes you are correct they are all over the city and multiple in Tribeca. There is one on the parking lot ground located on the corner of Worth and Hudson that is a little different! Thanks for the information. I always wondered where they originated from, regards, Sonia Stock — Sonia F. Stock on Where in Tribeca?

Ah! Of course!! Great. — Tribeca Citizen on Where in Tribeca?

I think there are 2 of this. One is on the corner of the building a 166 Duane. The other is on the corner of that narrow bulidingon Greenwich and Reade. — Duane Street on Where in Tribeca?

Reade and greeenwich That’s the French street artist Space Invader and he has done 100s of mosiac tiles all over the city. This piece was destroyed years ago and restored recently. The same group recently restored another invader on Duane and Hudson. — Dexter on Where in Tribeca?

The Danny Lyon book - The Destruction of Lower Manhattan - is invaluable. — A. on Looking Back: Harrison Street at night, in the ’40s

My typo, you’re correct of course, since I see this view daily. Thanks very much. A. — A. on Looking Back: Harrison Street at night, in the ’40s

Less than 30 years later, the corner of Washington and Harrison looked like this Click on the seventh image in the gallery to see the same corner. Here's another image of the same corner taken less than 10 years later, from the collections of the MCNY. And a different angle of the same corner, and much of the rest of central Tribeca from 1967 by Danny Lyon. You can see more photos of what would become Tribeca from that time, as well as further east, in his amazing book. — Robert Ripps on Looking Back: Harrison Street at night, in the ’40s

You're so right! What was I thinking? Obviously, I wasn't! Oh my! And what about that Sotheby's Harald Grant Hamptons ad?!! What now, should everyone move to the Hamptons?!! I hope this sponsored damage is reversible! Sadly, from the looks of the traffic at the Midtown Tunnel....its too late!!! Poor Tribeca, we hardly knew ye. — Don on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

I guess you missed my point - for a paper whose existence is to support the local community, it feels tonally off to include advertisements pushing readers to leave that local community and move elsewhere. — Scott on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

Yes, Scott, EVERYONE should move to Miami. You no longer have the ability to read a sponsored ad and think for yourself. Start packing! — Don on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

With respect, the Miami on the Rise ad campaign kind of rubs me the wrong way for a locally-oriented newspaper - is the idea that everyone in Tribeca should move to Miami for tax savings? If so, who will be left to read about (or care about) Tribeca? Maybe not the most well advised sponsor, IMHO. Thanks for all the great work you're doing on the site. — Scott on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

What I would selfishly be more interested in are the Wall St. / Pier 11 lines adding a stop in Battery Park. It's certainly not the end of the world to walk over there but it does take some time. — batterypark16 on CB1 gives Heisman to NYC Ferry service

I think the solution is to keep the ramps and insert a painted crosswalk, as we had at Duane and Greenwich for decades until they added the stoplight. — Tribeca Citizen on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the pedestrian ramps at Reade and Greenwich?

So they went out of their way to expend time and resources for a non-essential project that inconveniences locals. That’s good. Thanks for looking into this — M on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the pedestrian ramps at Reade and Greenwich?

i always thought it was strange that those ramps were there. after all, there was no crosswalk or stop sign on greenwich at that corner. it basically was encouraging jay walking. — josh on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the pedestrian ramps at Reade and Greenwich?

No, you are not right. You are wrong. - A guy — mervis on In the News: Chief women are chief entrepreneurs
