So tired of people using the term "bullying" when confronted with differing opinions (even when made w/ a little snark or humor). That's not bullying... it dilutes and detracts from the children and/or adults who face real world, real life bullying. This is the comments section of a local website; people may disagree with each other & have strong opinions on the subject - that's life... IT IS NOT BULLYING. Good grief. — Jeff on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
I heard the tour director say that there would NOT be any vendors set up in the open spaces of the village. They would have street furniture (seating areas) but no vendors. — Luis Vazquez (FiDi Fan Page) on The First Real Look Inside Pier 17
Amen! — JP on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
Tom and Jo are simply the best. They help you realize yourself in the best and most attractive way. They exude kindness and care. You can’t do any better for any price. Thanks, guys! — HCR on Spotlight: Tortola Salon
Hi, I live in a highrise in NJ 9th floor and heard the loud helicopters coming over our building and watch them going towards NYC and although far I could see them without lights flying low and between the buildings. Only one had a red light. I was worried too, I figured and prayed it was a drill but still it was scary and you keep wondering. I just googled right now cause I still wonder and found all your responses. Wow. — Madaleine on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
I think they are flying over whitestone queens right now they flew over like 3 times already. Why are they doing this at night and flying so low over familys houses — Pat on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
As expected, the little girl gets scared and runs away from the mighty bull! — Jim Smithers on The “Fearless Girl” Statue Is Being Moved
The wine at frenchette is quite honestly awful. I love organic anything, but their selection of wine undrinkable. I can appreciate their effort but the finished product doesn’t work. My recommendation... bring your own wine! — Bdq on In the News: Fixing the Canal Street Problem
This is the price that all of you pay to live the lives you live in this country. These aren’t hacks, they are obviously Tier 1 units, who are training for the unthinkable. You will never get a heads up bc that would compromise their presence and believe it or not there are people who would take that opportunity to try and harm or observe the tactics of these units. So I am sure they are sorry for scaring you but they would make it up to you by giving their life for you. So just eat your Kale, sip your Chai Tea, watch Netflix and let the big boys do what they need to do and be glad they are doing it. — Pluto on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
It wasn’t a gun, it was a fueling probe on an H-60 — Shane Hayes on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
An informative article about two wonderfully talented and solid men who’ve made an indelible mark on TriBeCa. They say that some people are pioneers and others are settlers. I think Jo and Tom pulled off both with style and grace. Glad to hear they’ll be doing it forever. — Frank Mosco on Spotlight: Tortola Salon
20 years living in Tribeca, 20 years Tortola client. Tom, Jo & the staff make you feel comfortable & welcome. We've traded recipes, restaurant & hotel recommendations. I hope we stay in one another's lives forever. Love you guys. — Virginia Stewart on Spotlight: Tortola Salon
From the French language police: "Au cheval" literally means "at the horse." It seems likely that "au cheval" is a corruption of "à cheval." In French, "à cheval" means "on horseback." "Steak haché oeuf à cheval" means "hamburger with a fried egg on top." — Marcel Proust on Seen & Heard: Au Cheval Isn’t Opening Anytime Soon
OMG!!! A military helicopter with guns?!?! We have to protest! Who can we boycott? — Makes You Go Hmmm.... on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
Just to help out any other newcomers around Hudson River It's called the Hudson River... sigh — Carl on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
Yea I saw them too some of the helicopters had guns on them — Jon on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
They are military helicopters, right? I am shocked that here in the Resistance Capital of the United States, no one is blaming the Commander in Chief. Wow. — PeterD on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
All I want is a little space in Tribeca and Battery Park City with grass. Like they have all the way in the Battery during the spring, summer and fall. Revolving area to allow the grass to be maintained and regenerate. Lots of responsible dog owners. The concrete is so tough on the pups feet and they all have such a better time on grass. — Victoria Harmon on Showdown at the Warren Street Dog Park
I agree with everyone’s reply above. The “fake” street vendors and people hustling you for handbags and watches is a safety nightmare. Try going down the R train stairs in daylight on the south east side of Canal and Broadway. At least two or three hustlers. Been going on for the four decades since I’ve been a Tribeca resident. And this is not mentioning the mess on Walker just north of Canal and Broadway. Let’s hope this will get cleaned up but I have my doubts after years of complaints. — Dixie on Meet Your New Community Police Officers
Sorry, but this is taking something dumb and making it dumber. Yes, the current location is unsafe and impractical. But Wall & Broad is already a zoo, and I cant believe that the NYPD or the NYSE will be too happy with this. The area is already under constant surveillance and vigilance for attacks, etc., and adding to the chaos and crowds that already gather there would seem to be an unwise decision from a safety point of view. — BobR on The “Fearless Girl” Statue Is Being Moved
From a Huffington Post rave about the Au Cheval in Chicago: "'Au Cheval' literally means 'on horseback' but in France, if a food on a menu is described with that phrase, it means 'a fried egg on top.'" — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: Au Cheval Isn’t Opening Anytime Soon
Is it just me, or does anyone else find the name "Au cheval" unfortunate (it makes me think they're serving horse meant)? — KP on Seen & Heard: Au Cheval Isn’t Opening Anytime Soon
I stand corrected. — JP on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
that's MS. Don't Dare Call Me Snowflake (ha ha ha). — DSL on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
I think you have a very soft idea of what "dangerous and reckless" is. Relax... — Jeff on Military Helicopters Scare Lower Manhattan
