Into the danger zone

Not sure exactly what was happening yesterday at the 20 Pine condoplex in the Financial District...but it involved plastic...



...some scaffolding...




...and some DANGER signs!

Rich people to share space with kids

At 20 Pine in the Financial District.

Noted

From Page Six today:

THAT Kwiat Diamonds will send security to 20 Pine St. tonight to guard the jewels Amanda Hearst and Andres Santo Domingo will wear at artist David Foote's opening, hosted by Porsche Design's fragrance, The Essence . . .

And!:
THE "Sex and the City" tour buses will take a detour today so that diehard fans can take a gander at screen star Gilles Marini . Marini, who played Samantha's shirtless neighbor in "Sex and the City: The Movie," may even strip down again this afternoon while facing off in Ethan Zohn's Grassroots Soccer United match at Sara D. Roosevelt Park on the Lower East Side. The hottie will play with Brandon Routh and gold-medalist Heather O'Reilly to raise money for AIDS awareness.

During my guest stint at Curbed last week, I wrote a post on 20 Pine, the big-ass condo conversion that's been taking a looooooong time to get condoized in the Financial District.

Oh. As for big-ass (classy me), this is what I mean:



And it's, uh, big-assier in person.
