Jeez can we get some more options besides los tacos, naya, and shake shack that don’t break the bank

Even a chipotle would be nice

Ok yall what’s ur favorite nail place overall for price and service?
What are you guys getting done and how much is it?

Does anyone live at the Lightwell and can comment on what living at the building or in the neighborhood is like? My husband and I are moving for work soon, and just submitted an application. We've toured a few other neighborhoods and buildings in Brooklyn, but keep coming back to this one. Our unit would be on the Front street side, I believe.

For reference - he'll be working in SoHo and I'll be working in Midtown. It doesn't seem like the commute will be terrible(?)

We aren't too worried about a lot of tourists around (I used to live in Midtown so I'm used to the overstimulation) but safety is a priority. We also aren't too picky about having a lot of good local dining options, as we like to cook. We do like to have access to good grocery stores, coffee/matcha spots, and gyms.

We just moved to the neighborhood with our baby. Any mom groups or places to see mama/baby hang outs? Looking for some community :)

Any recommendations for dry cleaning? I have a few coats, blazers, and dresses that need to be dry cleaned.
