and that's what most people think Tribeca is


so i'm bemused to see it being used to big up a patch of ground that used to house a HAir PROducts WArehouse NExt to Goose Green, ED's favourite dog toilet. something like HaProWaNeGG would surely be a more appropriate name than 'The Tribeca'

i saw the signage on the hoarding and sniggered.

"Tribeca'- Triangle below Canal Street is how the area got its name.

I don't know of any Canal Street in ED. Nor any canal.

Its pathetic giving the building such a pseudo hipster name.

I'm now expecting to see "Williamsburg Hights''Dumbo Court' 'Hoxton House' cropping up in our 'nabe

some people's bottoms are other people's tops - maybe i'll leave that thought there for now...

my thinking was that that's the north end, Sue, from where the wind blows bitter and cold down the road from Goose Green in winter


whether bottom or top, "I live in Tribeca - no 'The Tribeca' - at the bottom of Crystal Palace Road" - its very snigger-worthy. only a developer could come up with that, while busily concreting over every square centimetre in sight.

    • Local councillors,  over the many years that the boards have been installed, have rarely updated them. Details of councillors surgeries were posted by party supporters.    
    • If you speak to the reception you should be able to get a free gym induction as part of your membership. Not enough people actually get guidence on how to use the equipment properly and therefore either don't get the best out of it or injure themselves. After the refurb I booked an induction so I learnt how to adjust the new equipment because despite attending there for about 10years I was used to the old machines and equipment and at my age (64) I really did'nt want to faff around not knowing how adjust things correctly. As regards advance booking classes I know for sure you used to be able to book a class 10days in advance but not sure about 2 weeks. Good luck in the gym!
    • Wtf. The word in Greek is the “n” word for Black women. Why would someone open a business under this name? People should boycott instead of commenting on food. 
    • Good on you for doing something rather than some who would prefer to complain about what others are doing.  Enjoyed the read and look forward to seeing more of the meals from the area.   There's are some great substack newsletters out there for local news and exploration. Love to see it.
