The Tribeca Citizen has a report from the latest downtown Community Board 1 meeting and learns that residents Al and Vanessa Merrin are hoping to take over the Blue Bench space at 159 Duane to open a restaurant with "artisanal, local, gourmet comfort food." Meanwhile, another local wants to open "something akin to Walker’s" in the now shuttered Pig 'n' Whistle space at 365 Greenwich. [TC]
