Heidi, don’t be a buzzkill. This is awesome. — Zach on “Barcade” = bar + arcade coming to Amish space

Church Street School for Music & Art’s gala is happening Tuesday April 4th. Buy tickets now and support the beloved long time TriBeCa school. CSSMA.org. The Event. — TG on Seen & Heard: MOCA president will be founding director at Smithsonian Women’s Museum

They have one in Chelsea on West 24th Street. Very nice business. — Perry Rothenberg on “Barcade” = bar + arcade coming to Amish space

Brickyard is now OPEN and they stayed open until 11pm on Saturday when we went for March Madness. It is awesome, the staff is super friendly, and we used the Murray street exit to leave. I'm glad that the 9pm restriction was disregarded because that is ridiculous. Go enjoy Brickyard ASAP. — Zach on Sports bar coming to the former Barleycorn space

We dropped in on Saturday for the Final Four games. They extended the hours to 11pm as of last weekend - hooray! Also, the door on Murray was indeed open for us to exit and they said would be good to enter as well. Jenelda (apologies if I misspelled that) is super friendly and awesome, Keith is a great bartender, and I can't wait until that huge brick pizza oven gets fired up. They have lots of options for the IPA fans, I wish there were more stouts or brown ales on tap, small complaints though. I will be here all the time. I hope Brickyard lasts forever, we badly needed a massive true sports bar in our neighborhood. — Zach on Sneak Peek: New sports bar on Park Place

Man does this look awful. — Heide Fasnacht on “Barcade” = bar + arcade coming to Amish space

If you consider a former bus depot public space, then yes, now it has a private tenant that supports the park with its rent and yes, I think that's a better public use. — Tribeca Citizen on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

Actually yeah, but continue to be a shill for privatizing public space. — Perry on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

I visited the Cortlandt location a few days ago and, what I found out is this: the Century 21 sign on top of the building is gone. And the reason is that that part of the store ( with marble floors and staircase in men’s department) was totally blocked off and no longer be a part of a new store. The entire space was gutted. I was told that the space will host a museum ( not sure what kind). All the windows were taped so it was impossible to look inside and see the progress. I hope, but I am not sure it will be ready by April 25th, as they projected. — David on Century 21 will reopen in April

Caliza has gotten several bad reviews. Have others heard anything good about the food? — Maureen on Seen & Heard: A way to report unlicensed cannabis shops

Wish we had something cool like this instead of yet another kid’s park or yoga center — B on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

Article link no how reducing lanes reduces congestion: https://cal.streetsblog.org/2022/05/13/three-reasons-why-congestion-decreases-when-cities-delete-road-lanes/ — Marcus on Nosy Neighbor: What’s happening with Hudson Street?

Actually, reducing car lanes will eventually reduce car traffic. So I'm all for reducing lanes, widening sidewalks, adding bike lanes, and where feasible in the city, replacing vehicle lanes with protected transit lanes, ideally for trolleys/streetcars, but at least for buses. What's the status of congestion pricing? When will it happen? Yesterday we endured about 3 hours of continuous horn honking at Canal and Broadway at rush hour. Some drivers were actually just pressing their horn for minutes at a time. It was like a horrible dissonant symphony of "modern" music. From hell. Not to mention a rage incubator. Why no tickets for illegal horn honking? Why no enforcement? — Marcus on Nosy Neighbor: What’s happening with Hudson Street?

It’s only clogged w tunnel traffic about 5-10% of the time in the short stretch just south of Canal (w the southern half empty nearly all day long), and is otherwise almost always devoid of automobiles. We’ve become so accustomed to designing our roads primarily for cars that we’ve forgotten that many, many more people use our streets all day long for walking, cycling, to eat and drink outside at cafes and to lounge on benches; only in America do we have a poverty of imagination when it comes to multi-modal, and more more creative, use of urban space. P.S. the traffic will never go away, no matter how many lanes we build for cars. We might as well let others share the space, and otherwise disincentivize suburban commuting via auto into the densest city in the country. — Reader on Reade on Nosy Neighbor: What’s happening with Hudson Street?

Underutilized?!?!? Seriously???? Have you never been on Hudson at rush hour? — Makes You Go Hmmmm.... on Nosy Neighbor: What’s happening with Hudson Street?

Thrilled that Pier 57 opens *today* at 11am! Not an April Fool's joke. It is the most well-curated, delicious food hall and just a brilliantly designed multi-use space to bring more NY'ers and $'s to support the Hudson River Park. The views inside and from the rooftop park are superb! — Emily D. on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

Somebody’s gotta pay the bills. — FiDiGuy on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

I am one of the tenants that fled 59 Franklin/358 Broadway! What the construction, development, management, and other related companies did was horrible! The building was cracking and leaning as tenants were ACTIVELY still living in them! They employed scare tactics against some tenants who tried to stand their ground as well. Didn't even give proper notice for the timeframe of when tenants should leave too! Whatever they're doing or up to is very very fishy and illegal from what I've experienced sadly. — 20someyearoldfilmstudent on Construction Update: 65 Franklin / 360 Broadway

We will miss you and the BEST PIZZA EVER!!! SAD BUT WE UNDERSTAND! ❤️❤️❤️ PIZZA just like the one we only eat in Italy !!!! — Paula Gorosito on Picasso Pizza, a stalwart of Battery Park City, has closed

Uber Dem whiffs. Next batter:) — Christopher on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

Typical story that is playing out all over this city on a daily basis. Greedy landlords pushing out small business with extortionate rent hike. They will keep the space empty until they can find a corporate tenant. Meanwhile, residential rents will somehow keep going out despite the continual drain of amenities and services — David Natoli on Picasso Pizza, a stalwart of Battery Park City, has closed

No, it has been a revenue-generating node for Hudson River Park since the park was created in 1998. — Tribeca Citizen on Field Trip: Hudson River Park’s Pier 57 in Chelsea (part one)

Thank you for looking into this! — M on Nosy Neighbor: What’s happening with Hudson Street?

I like that bike lane idea, as it is a bit hairy riding up Hudson once you get to the lane bollards by the Holland Tunnel exit, and have to share a lane with speeding vehicles until you can cross Canal street to hit the established bike path up there. Cool video too! Just wish it wouldn't take several weeks to redo the street, as it is somehow dangerous to walk across or ride on the street, between milling and final paving. — Robert Ripps on Nosy Neighbor: What’s happening with Hudson Street?
