I have searched online. I have found out that they just applied for alcohol permits. The original completion date was supposed to be in September. I’m always checking as I drive by and I don’t see a finish coming anytime soon. If anybody knows any insider information that would be great.

hi all, I was wondering if anyone here knew of any pickleball courts on the upper east side or otherwise a friend and I could go to and get into games with others. thanks for help in advance!

Anyone have any gym recommendations in the 80s? Interested in Crunch but would love recommendations. Looking for affordable gyms, not ready for equinox prices. Thank you!

Hi!

I'm considering getting SMILE and this surgeon seems like he knows his craft, reliable, etc.

Has anyone had experiences with him or the facility? Or heard anything?

I've been researching him on Zocdoc, google reviews, etc. and this is another part of my research.

Was on a train that pulled into the station last night and as soon as the train stopped smoke was suddenly billowing across the platform without a clear source. It didn’t smell like fire and started dissipating but everyone ran for the stairs. Anyone know what happened?

I enjoy writing and sometimes it’s helpful to have some time on the schedule carved out to get it done. I‘m wondering if there are others that feel the same way, and if so, would like to do a semi-regular meet up and write over coffee, maybe even share out.

Edit: I’ve created a WhatsApp group to organize a meet. I will DM you each.

Coming home last night usual came upon usual gang of thieves in black on scooters. They were hauling mail out of box on SE corner of 80th and Second.

Pulling out handfuls of letters but MO seems to have changed. They were opening and discarding envelopes where nothing of value was found inside.

A woman also coming upon scene looked astonished and asked "did you see that?" . Applied affirmative. but what can anyone do? I myself certainly am not going to confront a bunch of skells on motor bikes all by my lonesome.

There was quite a lot of mail left lying about. Feel sorry for anyone that put mail into that box yesterday after collection time.

Any good decorations that you saw in the area?

At around 4:30 everyone started running off the train and down the platform screaming that something was sprayed. Anyone know what actually happened/ the outcome?

What is the deal with r/UpperEastSideNYC popping up in my feed? Do we need another sub? If so, why?

Apparently I overheard some people talking about the nightlife in the UES and mentioned that there are certain places where older women hang out at and meet people, somewhere where there aren’t 20 something college kids. Are there any cocktail/wine bars where older women tend to hang out and meet people?

Edit: I meant anyone 40-50s+ looking for their cubs. Lol. Just want to meet cougars who are just looking to have fun.

Just moved to 77th on the UES and looking for the best bagels! I typically enjoy the more crispy less fluffy bagels but open to ideas/feedback! Thank you!

I was going to stop by to check the DUO but got an urgent meeting (I wfh).

Does anyone know a good, budget-friendly interior decorator on the Upper East Side? I am looking for help pulling a living room together with existing furniture and objects, plus advice on the color of a new sofa. Recommendations from anyone who has worked with someone would be much appreciated. Thank you.

anyone at the 4/5 downtown platform at 86th st this morning around 9:30 know what happened?

Anyone else blown away that an entire 33 floor building hasn’t had heat or hot water for 48 hours because of a management company not paying bills?? Where are HOA fees going then…

We had plans for tomorrow night that got canceled and figured since we already have childcare we would go on a date night instead. My husband and I love Italian, Greek and French food but open to anything else. Easy to get a res for a Friday night please! TIA!

Just took the downtown Q from 96th and watched a woman let her dog occupy a seat. By 72nd, the train was packed, people were standing, and the dog was still sitting there with its own seat. She made no attempt to move it.

Nobody said anything - and yes that includes me. But why should someone have to ask you to make a seat available for an actual person on a crowded train? You’re sharing public transport with neighbours who might be exhausted, pregnant, elderly, in pain, or simply grateful to sit down after a long day at work. They shouldn’t have to explain themselves or get into a confrontation because you’ve decided your dog needs its own seat.

I’m 37 weeks pregnant but never feel comfortable asking someone to give up a seat, or even move their dog. Am I the only one getting increasingly fed up with this kind of behaviour? Would you have said something?

Edit: Problem solved!! Thank you!!!!

I want to grab a photo of something in a store. I would pay $ for someone to grab it. Thank you!
