TRIBECA?The Downtown Alliance's quest to make Lower Manhattan's many construction sites less ugly has come to the Chambers Street road reconstruction project between West and Greenwich Streets. Artist Richard Pasquarelli's "Secret Gardens," a 5-foot-high, 1,000-foot-long vinyl mesh print, was just installed. Half of it, anyway. The other half, to West Broadway, will be installed in late October. [Downtown Alliance]
