Nosy Neighbor: Will the World Trade Center Streets Ever Reopen to Cars?
"I understand that in the age of terrorism, those streets have been blocked off to all but foot traffic, but the streets themselves are still there. Is there a contingency plan somewhere stating that—someday—those connecting streets will once again be open to vehicle traffic?" / 9 comments
Nosy Neighbor: Why Is Bogardus Plaza Taking So Long?
"Why is Bogardus Plaza taking so long? It seems like they tear it up, go underground, cover it up, then tear it up again! So many machines and so many people for such a small space." —S. / 5 comments
Nosy Neighbor: How Can I Get a Personalized Brick on Greenwich Street?
"Around ten years ago, I purchased personalized sidewalk bricks on Greenwich Street for my two daughters. I've since had two more daughters, and I'd love to buy them bricks, too. Do you have any idea who takes the orders now?" —C. / 1 comment
Nosy Neighbor: When Will the Tribeca Bridge Elevators Be Fixed?
"I'm wondering about the elevators at the Tribeca Bridge, which have been out of service all summer. I assume it was in prep for the new paint job? That elevator is very useful in crossing the highway safely." —J.
Nosy Neighbor: When Will This Subway Elevator Be Done?
"Will the new subway elevator outside 30 Park Place (for the Chambers Street station on the E line) ever open? It's been under construction for years, although there's been no sign of work for a long time. The adjacent stairs opened in the fall of 2016." —I. / 2 comments
Nosy Neighbor: What’s Going on at 217 Broadway?
"Most of the building was vacated in the past two weeks, and work crews are in there nearly 24 hours a day. Interior walls on most floors have been removed. It looks like a total renovation... or they're tearing it down." —P.
Nosy Neighbor: What’s Happening in This Vacant Lot?
"Anyone know what's going in on the southeast corner of Spring and Hudson? Lots of diggers there." —M. / 1 comment
Nosy Neighbor: What Are These White Window Coverings?
"I walked by the old American Flatbread space on Hudson this afternoon and saw strange plastic coverings being installed on the windows. Any idea what's going on?" —K.
Nosy Neighbor: What’s That White Thing on 56 Leonard?
"What's that white thing on the third-floor balcony at 56 Leonard? Is the building going to have more art besides the Anish Kapoor sculpture at the base?" —G. / 6 comments
Nosy Neighbor: Where Has Danny the Ice Man Gone?
"Do you happen to know what happened to Danny—our ice man on the corner of Greenwich and Chambers? He was there for a couple of weeks and now we haven't seen him. He is a part of Tribeca in the summer and I hope he is OK." —M. / 3 comments
