FORT GREENE?After failing to find a big retail tenant to take over the gorgeous space, the old bank lobby in One Hanson Place (the former Williamsburgh Savings Bank tower, of course) was turned into a high-end events space. A reader writes: "Just wanted to send you a tip on first wedding reception at One Hanson Place (mine). Although a few days late, here are a couple of pictures of what it looked liked inside." We're running the photos not because we love the space, but also because we're hopeless romantics. Mazel tov! [CurbedWire Inbox]
MIDTOWN EAST?Fans of Gossip Girl, take note. A tipster writes: "The entire Palace Hotel is closing in 2010 (not sure when in 2010) for an entire year for renovations. I believe that includes the banquet space as well, but am not 100% sure on that." Xoxo. [CurbedWire Inbox]
