  • I’m glad someone else brought that up; the shed has been up for well over three years, yet there’s no one ever working on it. More than a year ago I tried to get an answer from the school’s office, the school’s custodial engineer, and the Department of Education. No one had a clue as to when the eyesore would be taken down, or when someone would actually be working on it, or why it is actually up there in the first place. — NdS on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the tree in front of PS 234?

  • As a curious bystander, does anyone know why the storefront next to the Patriot Saloon on Chambers has been untouched? I know it used to be a Popeyes but it shuttered LONG ago and it still has the signature color scheme on it even with the sign long gone. — Anonymous on Seen & Heard: 250 Water brownfield cleanup hearings

  • That tree was not planted for Nick The tree planted for Nick has a small sign at its base and it is in the next garden plot over (to the North) on the street side. The tree is doing very well. — George on Nosy Neighbor: What happened to the tree in front of PS 234?

  • This hotel has been a HORRIBLE neighbor already. Air horns and sawing start at 7 AM - ON SATURDAYS! - and I get home tonight to more sawing, concrete trucks, and construction crew whistling and yelling AFTER 9 PM (they do have a permit from 6-9PM today and tomorrow.) I simply cannot imagine what they will be like once they're open! Completely disrespectful of all of us and local laws. — ANGRY NEIGHBOR on Firmdale to operate 86 Warren hotel

  • Is this the signage in the window of the new Cafe Clementine location on Greenwich? — Remington on Where in Tribeca?

  • S The Tour which started in 1977 has had to adapt to a changing city. The start line area originally was pretty much non residential as was the industrial waterfront of Queens and Brooklyn-now look at Dumbo. The organizers work hard to minimize inconvenience to residents but acknowledge they do exist. The talks with local community boards are done in good faith, in an effort to get along with our fellow New Yorkers. I would add that this event occurs one day a year-imagine the disruptions for folks that live along 5th Ave. I will add that the logistics of running a 30,000+ person event on bicycles are quite complicated and the idea of starting at Battery Park on the surface make sense but keep in mind the line of cyclists waiting to start the tour stretches from the start line almost all the way down to Battery Park. Only a few thousand of the 30,000 come over from Staten Island in the morning. The Tour is a world class event that fellow residents as well as visitors from all over the world come to NYC to ride in. Lastly the funds raised support the free classes that Bike New York provides in the 5 Boroughs, mostly in economically disadvantaged and underserved communities. — Diamond on Seen & Heard: Five Boro Bike Tour on Sunday

  • One more thing, could you put a link to the list of field trips on the menu on the left hands side of the site under 'Arts & Culture...etc.? — Robert on Field Trip: Paddle the Bronx River

  • These field trips are a really great idea and can encourage the 'faint-hearted' to venture out to parts of the city they may not otherwise have explored. This is such a great city to explore and there are so many great 'hidden' places which are wonderful and not adjacent to Times Square. As a Big Apple Greeter I always encourage tourists to go to places which they don't find in the main-stream guidebooks and these field trips form a great inventory of things to do for those who have longer stays in NYC. — Robert on Field Trip: Paddle the Bronx River

  • Thanks for your kind words. I actually went to the stage to thank them & acknowledge their efforts. I think they feared I was there to complain so they seemed quite surprised & relieved to receive my thanks. I believe we can co-exist & I’m glad they’ve found a way to run the tour without jolting us out of bed at 6:45 on Sunday. That said, I still think it makes more sense to start it near Battery Park, especially since they tell folks to park in Staten Island & come over on the ferry. Thanks for passing on my experience to your friend. — S on Seen & Heard: Five Boro Bike Tour on Sunday

  • @S: It's nice to see you credit Bike NY's (somewhat) quieter 5-Boro Bike Tour startup today. I've passed on your compliments to one of the organizers, a friend, and he was pleased that your fears weren't realized and that you said as much. Graciousness is in short supply these days, but not on your part. Nice. — Komanoff on Seen & Heard: Five Boro Bike Tour on Sunday

  • I’m happy to report that they only had 4 speakers on the block leading up to the stage (plus the ones on the stage itself). None on the other blocks. That’s what they agreed to in 2019. (I still feel for those living on that block.) So they have proven that they can run this safely without blasting music on the 5+ streets leading up to the start. Safety was one of their arguments for the need for blocks of speakers. Yes, it was smaller this year but 20,000 bikers is still a lot. Thanks, Bike NYC for keeping your promise to the neighbors of Tribeca. — S on Seen & Heard: Five Boro Bike Tour on Sunday
