Don’t Drink That Water (until tomorrow)
Posted in Notifications on Jun 30th, 2005
Following recent heavy rainstorms, higher than normal levels of particles have been detected in the City’s drinking water supply, which can interfere with the water chlorination process. These high levels were observed at approximately 2 a.m. today at the Hillview reservoir just north of New York City. While the affected water was diverted shortly [...]

ET Scoop: A new tv series set in the Village?
Posted in Film/Video, culture, in the news on Jun 24th, 2005
I hear (via zwire) that veteran television producer Larry Sanitsky asked bestselling author Adriana Trigiani - who has written and produced for television herself - to work with him on a new Lifetime Network series “about new mommies in Greenwich Village.” Sounds fun to me. Think they’ll film on our fair street? [...]

Rumblings and Bumblings posted the following:
1) West Village: No one else seems to know (by which I mean: I don’t know, and neither did my doorman), so I thought I’d ask you: There’s a little park in the West Village — Jackson Square — bordered by Greenwich Avenue, Eighth Avenue, and Horatio Street. (It lies [...]
Leslie Crocker Snyder - Is it time for a new Manhattan DA?
Posted in Elected Officials on Jun 23rd, 2005
Tuesday night I had the opportunity to mix and mingle with Leslie Crocker Snyder and supporters at a “Late Night With Leslie” event for young professionals at exotica-luxe club CAIN. Leslie, in an impressively sexy black leather get-up fit right in with the ridiculously beautiful and well-dressed crowd of young socialites. After all, even [...]
Signage. It’s a much more contentious issue than you’d think. From the fight to get a stop sign at the corner of Washington Street and Horatio, to the jubilee over the new ‘historic landmark’ signs in the MPD to the (so far) unproductive efforts to get Siren Management to remove the adverstisement signs on the [...]
Village Town Hall - June 23 - Meet the Borough President Candidates

Tell the next Manhattan Borough President what’s important to you at the forum for the candidates on Thursday, June 23 at 7pm at the Village Community School, 272 West 10th Street. Schools? Clubs? Parks? Porn? Noise? Big Buildings? You ask them about the issues near and dear to [...]
Friends of the Highline project celebrated a massive Federal Authorization victory last night at swanky MPD club LOTUS. Mojitos were flowing as Robert Hammond and Joshua David thanked their volunteers and funders and the local politicians who have helped them overcome this last obstacle blocking their dream to preserve the highline for reuse as [...]
June 22 - A Day of Silence
Posted in Hotel Gansevoort on Jun 16th, 2005
Sources inform me (oh, yes, I have sources) that in order to finish (and resolve) the noise issues, the exhaust fans at the Hotel Gansevoort will need to be shut down from approximately 8:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. on June 22, 2005. Hopefully, this will be the measure the hotel takes that succesfully eradicates [...]
