1) Tribeca: Finally, a reason for us all to feel special. A tipster writes, "88 Leonard Street (right) will open on Monday March 5th with occupancy starting in April." [CurbedWire Inbox]
2) Lower East Side: More downtown hotel action. A tipster files this report regarding the Allen Hotel: "Why has construction stopped on this douchebag boutique hotel? For more than a week, construction has halted, and the other day, there was a pro-union protest in front of the building. When there was construction, they were building illegally on the weekend, clearly with non-union labor. A mystery on Allen Street!" [CurbedWire Inbox]
3) Harlem: A reader interested in a former development du jour and Loft124 rival writes, "Just wondering if anyone over there had heard anything about the Dwyer. I called the listing agent and she said they were all gone. Didn't make too much sense considering what's going on at the Lenox and Lenox Grand and the fact the Dwyer's not even close to complete. I was looking at the listings though and seems the price/sq foot is on average below $600 which seems pretty good." [CurbedWire Inbox]
