  • Before construction starts, you can stroll down Bloomfield Street to the fireboat house. It's a public street. There's a gate at the end, but it will definitely get you closer. — Pam Frederick on A design for the Gansevoort Peninsula in Hudson River Park

  • Excited to finally have more opportunities to get a closer look at that Fireboat. — @en_b on A design for the Gansevoort Peninsula in Hudson River Park

  • "There’s no formula for what qualifies someone as the Citizen of the Month; I can just say that you will know HER when you see HER." Does this mean Jim Smithers will never be Citizen of the Month? — PeterD on Citizens of the Month: Hanne Larsen and Melanie Zrihen

  • Looks like that might be on Broadway near City Hall. If that's the case, its most likely Mayor Bill's Goodwill Spreader. He lost it after the US Women's Soccer parade. He'll be so happy it has been found. He wanted to take it with him to Detroit this week for the next presidential debates so he can spread his er, goodwill, around the debate stage. — PeterD on Seen & Heard: What in Tribeca?

  • Looks like something I would do when having to carry a very heavy can of paint or construction material like compound and having to transport it to my destination? But maybe its a modern art installation! It would certainly catch your attention, regards, Sonia Stock — Sonia F. Stock on Seen & Heard: What in Tribeca?

  • Just noticed that there's a new WeWork at 408 Broadway. The school that used to be in that space is gone. — TribecaMom on Seen & Heard: What in Tribeca?

  • Absolutely gutted! I lived in France for 10 years and this was the closest I found in NYC to an authentic, all butter croissant. Life was good again. Walking into the bakery put a smile on my face every time. Can't think of anywhere else that has the same effect. Roger, you really are a master of your art. Some would be happy to let someone else run the bakery while you sit back and reap the rewards rather than sell up. Would a drop in quality be the trade-off? Instead you are chosing to sell because you can't be there yourself to oversee. I admire you for that. — GM on Arcade Bakery will be closing — for good — in August

  • salt spreader. Out of season (I hope) — Heide Fasnacht on Seen & Heard: What in Tribeca?

  • That thing looks like a fertilizer spreader, but I don't think the sidewalk needs much fertilizing. — Leo on Seen & Heard: What in Tribeca?

  • We're lucky to have his brilliant work in our part of town. When the Harlem project was completed I recall the preservationist cadre getting all blue in the face, calling it a "monolith" and an eyesore, and whining about how it didn't fit the neighborhood vernacular. I couldn't help becoming depressed by their petty, meaningless preoccupations, but it quickly passed when I saw the interiors of this wonderful building. — David G Imber on David Adjaye tower in Fidi tops out — at 800 feet

  • As a dog lover, I think that giving your dog pot is unconscionable. Separately, while we are on the topic, I wanted to remind people DO NOT BRING YOUR DOGS INTO RESTAURANTS. The health department is now really cracking down on restaurants where dogs are visitors. You night have noticed an increase in B ratings and Grade Pendings across the city recently. The health department is often noting that dog visits will cause restauranst to lose their A ratings and subjecting restaurants to very large fines. They are co ng 8n an demanding t look at video footage of ttye restaurant. If dogs have been present, the restaurant gets in trouble. It is not fair to restaurant owners who have enough struggles staying afloat to now risk massive fines becuase others cannot obey simple rules. Leave your dogs out of the restaurants please! — Rana on Seen & Heard: A vision for Tribeca Cinemas building

  • Great video, and he sounds like a truly caring person. Thanks for sending it. — G on David Adjaye tower in Fidi tops out — at 800 feet

  • She never actually opened nor finished the space... — Pam Frederick on Seen & Heard: Teresa Tarmey opening on Duane Street

  • Didn’t Teresa Tarmey open last summer? Or is this a te-opening? — Tribeca Mama on Seen & Heard: Teresa Tarmey opening on Duane Street

  • I worked for this owner for a long time. He worked hard for tribeca Taphouse and it’s employees. He always put his staff first, was involved in the community, and had a balanced home life. There may have been some money issues at the end but sustaining a restaurant is not an easy task. Unfortunately mom and pop restaurants have been choked out of Manhattan. Cant wait to see a restaurant group giant come into Tribeca that will only care about margins. Hold your head high Nick, you gave it your all and made an impact on many lives. It’s a shame to see anyone on here bashing. — Rhett Fischer on Seen & Heard: Tribeca Tap House has closed

  • Mary Miss, Just beautiful. Site specific art that takes ones breath away. All, please support funding for the arts. — neighbor on Oral History: The Tribeca beach, circa 1977

  • Hi Terry, we are looking for the rings, they never turned up at the 1st. Can you contact our office? 646 610-6700 thanks — NYPD on Crowd Sourcing: Trucks wreaking havoc downtown

  • Hi Terry! I am looking for these rings -- have you dropped them off by the 1st Precinct just yet? Thank you!! — Brendan on Crowd Sourcing: Trucks wreaking havoc downtown

  • Agreed with Hudson River. I have seen Chinese intercity buses going down Leonard to cut the Canal St traffic. The street has a construction site and makes it really narrow. I don't see safe with these big buses on narrow streets. — TribecaMom on Crowd Sourcing: Trucks wreaking havoc downtown

  • This morning I found 3 wedding/engagement rings near the swings by the splash park. Left a note with my phone number but no call. Dropping rings at NYPD 1st Precinct by Franklin St Station Tribecca — Terry P Marshall on Crowd Sourcing: Trucks wreaking havoc downtown

  • Wow!!!!! A genuine work of art. I am impressed. — Larry on Streetscape: Big reveal at 187 Franklin
