In 42 years of living in down here I’ve never set foot in New York Dolls (I’m married, female and work late hours) but it’s always fascinated me. Enlighten me, please, those who have. — JeanGrillo on In the News: 111 Varick nearly complete

Not only were they outside with a bullhorn encouraging people to yell, but sometimes there was someone with a boom box turned way up. The thing that made me the most nervous was the acrobats who had tied themselves to the scaffolding for the adjacent building with scarves in some kind of cheap circus act. In recent weeks, they have hosted parties on the weekends. There is a bouncer and people sneaking in and out of the front door. From our apartment, we can see the crowds through their windows. They continue to break the law in a variety of ways. — Karen on Blood Manor application for liquor license withdrawn

Love it . Wish I had patronized the 75 more. Wont miss the opportunity this time . Bummer as it comes on heels of Covid -19 — Dizzy on Jazz club returning to Bogardus mansion

Isn’t there a preference for people to NOT carry cash? Money has soooooo much germs on it. Debit/credit is safer! Or is it because people are worried the economy’s going to tank so take out cash now? — Cordcutter on Run at the bank? And could New York City schools close soon?

Have lived in Murray for years and have to say flash dancers are actually really good neighbors. The door guys are always super respectful and help police the neighborhood during this Deblasio administration disaster. — Michelle on How FlashDancers is handing the coronavirus outbreak

Street nuptials! Cool!! — TG on Seen & Heard: Signs of spring

I actually don't believe your comment at all. A carnival barker with a loudspeaker wouldn't last in most neighborhoods. They may have a hustle but a loudspeaker? Dat just can't be true man. — TG on Blood Manor application for liquor license withdrawn

Agreed — Tim on How FlashDancers is handing the coronavirus outbreak

The neighborhood needs more FlashDancers and less Blood Manors. — Jim Smithers on How FlashDancers is handing the coronavirus outbreak

This Blood Manor place wasn't like a normal bar or concert venue. They put on a 'show' outside of the club running late into the night with a carnival barker using a loudspeaker and exhorting the crowd. I'm all for nightlife downtown. But BM was awful. — Troy Torrison on Blood Manor application for liquor license withdrawn

I live on Broadway and have kids. My neighbors have kids. My building is full of kids. The entire strip from Walker going south is full of residential buildings, and they’re increasing in number. I love living on Broadway, arguably one of the most famous strips in the world! If I wanted a goofy B&T tourist attraction, I’d go to Bubba Gump in Times Square. This venue does nothing for the neighborhood. — Broadway Mama on Blood Manor application for liquor license withdrawn

I for one enjoy the quiet. I love that the streets are empty after 9-10:00 most nights. If I wanted lots of activities I'd live uptown a bit further. For me the quiet is perfect. — G on Blood Manor application for liquor license withdrawn

The NIMBY contingent is strong in TriBeCa. OOOH there was NOISE on Halloween!!! GOOD GOD. Weren't any of you young once? The place was on Broadway which is not a residential strip (it has a decent amount of apartments but not many and I doubt very many have children as who wants their children to live right on Broadway?) I agree a new venue should be respectful but they don't have 100% control of their patrons off grounds and never will. This area is in desperate need of places to go out. It really is a morgue down here on the weekends. You want quiet? Move to Mahopac. — Chronicles of NIMBY on Blood Manor application for liquor license withdrawn

Good location. — G on Hurricane Maria memorial design unveiled for end of Chambers Street

There will be additional bench seating for approximately 27 people along with approx 80 chairs and 22 tables. There will also be 2500 square feet of green space. The eggs refer to Tribeca's history when it was known as the butter and eggs district. — Bogardus Fan on The eggs are coming! Bogardus is making progress

Well, maybe there's another stenciled message? But this one is on Broadway, just north of Barclay on the City Hall park side... — Tribeca Citizen on Where in Tribeca?

Franklin Street on the sidewalk, between Greenwich and Hudson, north side of the street...near Tribeca Grill — Gene on Where in Tribeca?

I've been wondering whether more information about this man has emerged. I live across the street and saw him fall. I am thinking of his family, if he had one, and wishing them peace and healing. I am so sorry for the loss of his life. — Condolences from neighbor on Man dies after falling to Washington Street

Fascinating. Complimenting her while throwing shade - truly a talent! — Samson on Ninja has closed after 15 years

I need to know where this is! — MME on Where in Tribeca?

Yes, and she is negative. The school is now open. — Tribeca Citizen on New York Law School on West Bway closes its campus for coronavirus

Did the student and their roommate get tested ..? I don’t see any news on the results in the past 3 days. Hopefully it’s good news. — VL on New York Law School on West Bway closes its campus for coronavirus

Whole Foods seems to be cutting costs by moving all their operations to our sidewalks. — Marcus on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??

So what’s the vibe? Everyone seems to be taking it casually, life going on as normal down in Tribeca? A bit more staying at home this wknd, but we were already all washing our hands over the terrible flu this winter. A little early on our Spring Cleaning and glued to news streams. #coronavirus Is it a modern marvel that it’s traveled from a market 9985 miles away to our doorstep as we’ve watched on a virtual global update map? Well, it’s a distraction from Politics...smh — Jeff Goldstein on Gap closes its Tribeca offices for COVID-19

Exactly. Two different employees confirmed that WF has cut hours of part-time workers. Apparently, at least as far as the daily empty shelves of pasta are concerned, an employee remarked that they have plenty of stock but not enough employees to put it on shelves on a daily basis. Also, and this is not directly related to the thread, why doesn't WF stock whole wheat pasta ? There are numerous non-wheat choices - pasta made with rice, artichokes, quinoa, etc. -- but no whole wheat? When whole wheat does appear on the shelves, it is that of an expensive imported niche brand. Why? — Jane Slavin on Exactly what is going on at Whole Foods??
