Nosy Neighbor: Any Update on the Chambers Construction?
"My daughter said that one of the things she wanted for Christmas was for the work to be finished. I imagine Sandy didn't help the timeline but I'm having a hard time recalling the pre-construction era." —J. / 4 comments
Nosy Neighbor: Are the Hudson and Chambers Reconstructions Delayed?

Nosy Neighbor: What Happens to Old Cobblestones?
"I was watching today as more of the old cobblestones were ripped from my street and carted off to parts unknown. I wondered what New York City does with these 100?-year-old worn stones." —R. / 3 comments
Nosy Neighbor: Will the Construction at Hudson and Laight Ever End?
"We do not dispute the importance of such a project, but we do not understand why nobody is willing to give us a rough estimate of a return to normal." —P. / 2 comments
