TriBeCa is the real estate name of the area that was once called the Lower West Side. The name is a syllabic abbreviation for “Triangle Below Canal Street”.
It’s a neighborhood where wealthy people and lucky artists from the 70s and 80s live in “modest” 2,000 plus square foot apartments. I say modest, because JFK Jr used to live down there and many news sources would claim that he lived in a “modest” 2,600 square foot apartment. A friend of mine used to live in a 2,000 square foot place in Tribeca and it was HUGE!!!
Aside from the beautiful architecture that the neighborhood has, I noticed that those well to do residents of Tribeca hate picking up after their dogs – not even with leather gloves on!!!
I had noticed so much dog poop sprayed all over the streets and sidewalks that at times my walk felt like I was playing hopscotch with multiple rocks, or in this case poops, that were blocking a wild amount of squares that needed to be skipped.
I eventually started counting the poop (after seeing dozens of landmines) and in a brief portion of my walk I counted 83 locations of dog poop!!!
Aside from the poop problem that Tribeca has, they also have a passive aggressive problem…
There are NUMEROUS signs that adore buildings, or in this case a lamp post, stating that there is video surveillance and to curb your dog – it truly was amazing!
wow- classy!
why is it so hard to clean up after your dog? shame on you people! there’s a special level in hell for those who do not clean up doggie doo.
