LOCAL MOM STARTS PHOTOG BUSINESS
Tribecan Stephie Sobotka, who, after many years being out of the work force as a former beauty publicist, has launched a small photography concept \u2014 Unposed Pictures \u2014 where the \u201cphotoshoots\u201d are all candid \u2014 \u201cmaking family photos, birthdays, celebrations etc less pressure,\u201d she said. More TK, but in the meantime, find her here<\/a> or on Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n

CHRONICLING THE NEIGHBORHOOD\u2019S CLOCKS
Tribecan and filmmaker Marcus Adolf has made a film about Suzanne Dirks, a Village resident who is chronicling the clocks of New York City. (Read about her here.) Marcus has directed and produced the film, above, and trekked through the neighborhood to check out our collection of street clocks. Marcus works alongside collaborators Angelica Bourland and Chris Chu at 368 Broadway.<\/p>\n

LUXE CONCIERGE AT 311 GREENWICH
I await word on its exact purpose, but in the meantime, a luxury travel service \u2014 Luxe Concierge<\/a> \u2014 has taken the Koh\u2019s Kids space on Greenwich between Chambers and Reade. Thanks to J. for spotting the news on Traded<\/a>. If my Google search served its purpose correctly, the company plans experiences around the city and beyond \u2014 sushi making classes, tours of the catacombs at the Basilica of St. Patrick\u2019s Cathedral by candlelight and this one: mutilating a car with a backhoe at a desert trash site in Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

MTA WILL INSTALL NEW GATES
The MTA tested new fare-evasion-proof gates across the system, and we are about to get some at the Chambers Street 1\/2\/3 and the Spring Street C\/E. The fare gate pilot saw fare evasion decline by an average of 35 percent at the 20 stations where the gates have been installed. And now Governor Hochul has announced the next 20 subway stations that will receive new fare gates across all entrances, installed by the end of 2026.<\/p>\n
