Ben on 200 Water Street:
The fish lure is gone, the colored metal seats are gone, and the rectangular pond/fountain has been filled/paved.
james deboer on 1345 Sixth Avenue:
Hi - out of curiosity - is the part of the north plaza consisting of cordoned off restaurant seating open to the public? Thank you
Lucian on 189 Bowery:

Lengeling Joseph on 325 Fifth Avenue:
The management of 325 Fifth Avenue has permitted this couple unfettered access every day to sleep, litter, administer drugs and store their growing collection of items now for over two months. I spoke with the staff and the disavow any authority to make them move. NYC badly needs a POPS force to monitor these valuable public amenities. OR the property should be forced to close off the amount of bonus real estate they gained.
