It great to see people making things happen. Good luck. — Will on A (local) update on the French restaurant coming to Greenwich

Isn’t the tide deck open on select days and ticketed/timed? It just would be great to have something attractive everyone is the neighborhood can enjoy always as opposed to just kids — Neighbor on Seen & Heard: Tour the Pier 26 tide deck

I don't want anything in this neighborhood that requires tickets/timed entry. — alee on Seen & Heard: Tour the Pier 26 tide deck

Thank you for your calling attention to Finn Square's new website. Volunteers are welcome to help us plant bulbs on Saturday, November 13, at 11 AM. The sidewalk is a hazard, with so many irregular bumps due to the locust trees' root growth. We have been appealing to the DOT and NYC Parks for some time to widen the perimeter of the park. Even though fall is here, the roses are still in bloom. Come by and enjoy. Patricia Aakre, President, Friends of Finn Square — Patricia Aakre on Seen & Heard: News out of Finn Square

I concur! Little Island feels confining (though beautiful and enjoyable) The open feeling at Ps 25 & 26 and all lovely seating creates a more inviting environment. — neighbor on Seen & Heard: Tour the Pier 26 tide deck

Motorcycles and motorized vehicles should not be allowed on the bike path And bicycles should NOT be allowed on the crowded BPC esplanade Little kids elderly people on esplanade Fatality waiting to happen 4 recently on motorcycles drove down esplanade and Brookfield Security Guard pretended not to see The esplanade is not a highway — Samantha on Seen & Heard: Tight squeeze on the bike path

Thanks, I added to post. — Tribeca Citizen on UPDATE: What’s doing for Halloween?

I would never trade 25 & 26 for Little Island or the High Line. No way. — Tribeca Citizen on Seen & Heard: Tour the Pier 26 tide deck

So chelsea gets little island and high line, and we get an unattractive “tide deck” and a kid’s fish learning park? Lol tribeca needs to up its game — BC on Seen & Heard: Tour the Pier 26 tide deck

Quite the heartwarming story of a few average neighborhood folks who hired a Robuchon chef to be their personal at home cook during a pandemic, then decided to get together and open a restaurant with the same chef when restaurant spaces were cheap. I'm also pleased to hear that they didn't employ the chef based on the months privately cooking in their home, but still put him through some tests to make sure he could also manage their restaurant. — Digg Inn on A (local) update on the French restaurant coming to Greenwich

ARE RUSSIAN MANICURES DANGEROUS? The short answer, according to Malikova, is: yes and no. “It’s only dangerous in unprofessional hands,” she tells me over the phone. “This is a very specialized manicure and pedicure, and only professionals can do it because it requires meticulous application by a nail technician who’s received a vigorous education.” Interestingly, though, there aren’t many education options in the United States just yet. “The best schools are in Russia,” the founder says. “There are options in Los Angeles, however, they’re taught in Russian.” When seeking out a salon specializing in the Russian manicure, our advice is to inquire about how their staff has been trained. XYZ requires at least two years of experience, a certificate from a manicurist program, and training from a Russian manicure-focused school. When speaking about Los Angeles-based schools, Malikova directed me to ABC, a salon where all of her staff received their training in the Russian manicure technique, which is entirely separate from a manicurist license. Training in the art of the Russian manicure is understandably taken very seriously. “The way they train is on grapes and balloons,” she explains, implying that these delicate materials symbolize the nail matrix. “If you pop the balloon, you fail.” “We understand the risk of working with an electric drill, just like a surgeon understands the risk of working with a scalpel. In the right hands, a scalpel can do miracles, and in the wrong hands, a scalpel can do horrible things.” https://graziamagazine.com/us/articles/russian-manicure-facts/ — A. on New Kid on the Block: Gilded Ritual

So excited for Nylo's grand opening, it will be an awesome addition to our neighborhood. I've had the privilege of working with Sean prior to and throughout the pandemic - from Thames Park to his apartment. Sean & Elena are the dream team! I am faster, fitter AND more flexible from following their unique approach. The proof - two two kids and one global pandemic later - I returned to racing with a new marathon PR just over a week ago. The new space is stunning and I can't wait to continue training there.   — Tribeca Mom & Runner on New Kid on the Block: NYLO

Great story of individuals crossing tracks to join forces - Shining star in a gray building, talent back in the hood. — Sam T. on A (local) update on the French restaurant coming to Greenwich

I still can’t believe it is almost Halloween. — j. on UPDATE: What’s doing for Halloween?

Not in Tribeca but South Street Seaport has trick or treat on Halloween weekend. https://theseaport.nyc/events/halloween-at-the-seaport/ — TribecaMom on UPDATE: What’s doing for Halloween?

Fantastic to see locals reopening small businesses in the neighborhood. Sean and Elena are amazing trainers and all around lovely people. Sean has helped me lose 23 pounds of pandemic weight over the last 6 months - I am 2 pounds from my goal weight. No small undertaking for trainer with an overextended Tribeca mom client - who is pushing 50(!). Can’t wait to workout in the new space - it’s beautiful. Wishing them all good things! — Tribeca Mom on New Kid on the Block: NYLO

While, of course, the Seaport Coalition would have preferred to have prevailed on defeating the motion, it is critical to remember that the motion to dismiss had nothing to do with the merits of the case, only when the Court would intervene. It found the case was not “ripe” i.e. much could transpire that would obviate the need for judicial intervention, and we are free to refile our claims at a later point. “The advantage to us for having “lost” the motion is that we will now have the opportunity to take advantage of the additional time to further craft, enhance, supplement and polish our pleadings that we will file,” said Seaport Coalition Attorney Saul Shapiro. — Michael Kramer on In the News: Lawsuit against 250 Water fails

At the risk of inviting even more competition for a table, I can't help raving about One White. From the unexpected lusciousness of the shaved fennel salad to roasted monkfish in its flavorful broth, the clouds of glazed gnocchi with hazelnuts, the palate-altering chicken saltimbocca. Every dish is extraordinary. IMO the best food in Tribeca. — Cheryl Matalene on In the News: Still quiet at the office

I wish them luck! — Jolene on A (local) update on the French restaurant coming to Greenwich

There you have it, folks! — Tribeca Citizen on Where in Tribeca?

I am so saddened to hear this, though I only knew Scott briefly and distantly. I saw his plaque on a bench in the dog park. My girlfriend and I saw and conversed with Scott at the Tribeca dog park every morning while we walked our dog, Olive. He was usually accompanied by a lab called Marlo and Coco the doodle at that time. We often said to each other after encounters with Scott that when we were forced into the office full time, we'd HAVE to get him take on Olive. Clearly, he cared for the dogs he walked, evidenced by the sore elbow he must have developed throwing the doodle's favorite ball thousands of times every day. I read a short story not long ago about a dog walker in New York, "Sir Henry" by Lydia Millet https://theadroitjournal.org/issue-one-lydia-millet/. The main character bares little resemblance to what I knew of Scott-- where he is stern and formal, Scott seemed sunny and easy going. Still, it is a good story, and the subject matter and love for dogs reminds me of our neighborhood dog-walker. As I said, we didn’t know Scott so intimately, but I think our sadness of this news speaks to the quality of the person. Vivian, condolences for your loss. — Dillon Angela & Olive on Scott Geyer, local artist and dog walker, dies at 69
