Remember once upon a time ago 240G (240 Greenwich St.) used to be 101 Barclay St? Has the address change the bank’s solution to side step being a privately owned public space (POPS)?

BNY is supposed to allow 24 hour public access to the lobby, and has historically done all it can to deny access. How convenient that changing the building facade will guarantee they cannot meet this legal requirement for at least another 3 years. Anything to keep the riff raff out, I guess.

@OP I remember when the windows were blown out of the building from the 911 attack !!!

@f2 thank you for that piece of history

As I understand it, when 8 World Trade Center came down and crashed into 101 Barclay, the entranced was moved to Greenwich street. Plus Chainsaw CS wanted to erase away the remains of Bank of New York.

ChatGPT says 240 Greenwich/101 Barclays is still considered a POPS. Maybe we should ask Eliza for the real answer

When BNY purchased the land under 240 Greenwich St. a few years ago it no longer required to make the lobby available to the public. The lobby is no longer considered public space. It is private, just as is the rest of the building.

I saw the title “FROM” , thought of the show on MGM plus and how that is a fitting synopsis of employment at BNY.

We’re trapped, unable to easily escape, fighting monsters, and constantly on edge of what unknown threats are coming.
