By Gus SaltonstallIn September, the popular 1.25-mile Cherry Walk stretch of the Hudson River Greenway between West 100th and 125th streets closed for reconstruction work. At the time, notices posted by the New York City Parks Department said the portion of path adjacent to the Hudson River would reopen in spring of 2025. However, the stretch is still closed as of April 15. In recent weeks, West Side Rag received multiple emails asking when the pedestrian and bike pathway would reopen.

By Gus SaltonstallThis is not a drill. Signage went up Monday night for the “New Absolute Bagel” at the former Upper West Side home of Absolute Bagels. The new signage at 2788 Broadway, between West 107th and 108th streets, also includes the word “reopen.” While it is the same neighborhood storefront, the new “Absolute Bagel” name is noticeably slightly different than Absolute Bagels.
