To be discussed: The restaurant that Dr. Michel Cohen of Tribeca Pediatrics is opening on W. Broadway; something replacing Biddy Early's?; rooftop addition on a prominent corner; more.
Learn all about the new building destined for Greenwich, an improvement to the East River Waterfront, whether 87 Chambers will be a hotel or residential, hot tubs, and cell-phone antennas. Plus: Bad blood over 396 Broadway and tough decisions at 46 Warren.
Where do we start? Nam is closing, making room for a new restaurant. There's bar news (White & Church, the Duane Street one, another hotel rooftop bar). Something is going on at Megu, and a new restaurant is coming to Lispenard. Oh, and 403 Greenwich is back in play.
Including luxury condos, the fastfoodification of lower Church, the Goldman Sachs Dining & Entertainment Complex, Asphalt Green, the BPC ball fields, a nail salon, and more. UPDATE: Now with details on Dr. Michel Cohen's W. Broadway restaurant.
