Also on Community Board 1's January agendas: New restaurant/bar on W. Broadway; Asphalt Green report; Pier 26 update; the demo of the building next to the old American Stock Exchange; susheria that once had barfing patrons; Remix/Quest; a gazillion street events.
What was discussed: More on Maritime (taking over Ivy's Bistro); the rampaging hordes at the sushi restaurant in Independence Plaza; Tribeca Grand's sidewalk seating; Smith & Mills rebuff; Tiny's; Zutto; parking at a new building; and churros. / 2 comments
