Check out the renovated YMCA on West 14th St. at the open house on Sunday, September 13 from 10-2. Kids are welcome, and there will even be a rooftop carnival.
The McDonald’s on 6th Ave between 14th and 15th St. has been remodeled in a sleek and sexy European style. Well worth a visit to see what the future of fast food looks like.
That’s weird. Bar 13, which has been at the corner of University and 13th for more than 20 years, has been reborn as Cheers NYC, which is a non-alcoholic bar. Mocktails only. Go figure. Seems it’s true the kids are drinking less these days.
A reminder that the co-op’s annual meeting takes place on Tuesday June 9 at 7PM.
The location is the Seafarer’s International House at 123 East 15th St. on the second floor. It is right near Irving Place.

Next week (July 16 to July 20), Mechanical equipment deliveries and work on them will continue at the 17th and 18th floor levels. Deliveries for the internal systems of the building have been ongoing and will continue. Curtain wall installation will continue.
The following week (July 23 to July 27), we will be working on the machine room levels on the 17th and 18th floors. Deliveries for the internal systems of the building have been ongoing and will continue, although they should not greatly affect the flow of pedestrian and road traffic.
This weekend the site will be open on Saturday, July 14th for superstructure related activities between the work hours of 7AM and 5PM as permitted by the City. To control noise levels within the site, work activities will be limited to the placement of formwork and concrete, plumbing and electrical work, rebar for concrete placement, using the crane and equipment to support all activities. Safety horns are used, and required by law, to coordinate lifting with the crane and to alert the workers of the danger overhead. We have directed the operators to limit the use of horns to one short sounding and to use the crane later in the day so as to avoid any excess noise.
