This proposal is absolutely not feasible in terms of trash disposal. It is already difficult to walk down the sidewalks in the neighborhood on trash collection days. There is already such a surplus of trash bags from existing residential tenants, I cannot even IMAGINE what it would be like to have the amount of trash and food waste that such an establishment would generate be piled on to what we've already got. There is just no street or sidewalk real estate left for it to go. Totally unfeasible.

From my experience in another neighborhood, I'm sure that if Latitude 360 is allowed to do what they propose the quality of life on our block and in ou building will be seriously diminished. For those residents who are unwilling to put up with the noise, etc., and want to sell their unit and move out, potential new tenants will not want to pay otherwise viable asking prices.

Our neighborhood is growing and developing at a rapid rate. There are many services and amenities for residents and those working in the neighborhood that are needed but this is not one of them. It will only be disruptive and destructive to the neighborhood.

This venue does not belong in a residential neighborhood let alone adjacent to a building filled with children. This entertainment complex would have a detrimental impact on the quality of life to residents of 15 Broad Street and in other residential buildings in the area. The residents of FiDi have driven the development of this neighborhood, and our quality of life we enjoy should not be destroyed.

This facility in now way belongs in this neighborhood. This is a growing, enjoyable family oriented community with many your children and this will cause significant issue give the noise, and garbage it will create. I moved here to get away from event spaces such as this. Go put this where it belongs in Union square or Times Square or meat packing.

This monstrosity is a terrible idea for a quiet, intimtae neighborhood. Completely inappropriate and impractical for the frozen zone.

Absurdly inappropriate for the location. What are they thinking?

This establishment couldn't be more inappropriate given the historic and iconic buildings that surround the area. With Wall Street, Federal Hall, Trinity Church and the New York Stock Exchange, not to mention the historic former JP Morgan Chase Bank building that is now residential, all of which will be subject to loud noise, excessive loitering and drinking of customers from a place more suitable in Times Square. This is a residential building and neighborhood filled with families and young children; now who have to worry about being woken at all hours of the night. That they can consider putting a night club into a residential building so close to schools seems like a zoning issue. Once these landmarks character and essense are destroyed they can't be replaced. This isn't Las Vegas. These are real and historic places.

A place like this belongs in Times Square or, better yet, Atlantic City. I would love to see the marketing survey that suggested the 23 Wall location--yes, tourists (mostly during the day and from overseas who prefer their own cuisine), virturally no parking (and limited weekend MTA service--one line gets no closer than Chambers St./City Hall on the weekends), and a local population that seeks its dining in the existing upscale establishments or uptown, and its entertainment definitely uptown (SoHo, BAM, B'way and yes, Lincoln Center). In other words, is there the demand, real or projected, that will generate the cash flow an operation like this needs. Look no further than the attempt to upscale Brookfield Place. In other words, beyond the undesirabilty of an extablishment like this, one wonders about the long-term. When (and I guess I have to be charitable and add a qualified "if") the place fails (failure rates in NYC are pretty high, in case you haven't looked), any contract will have to include strict clean up and restore provisions. And let's not even begin to think to about Lat's security costs. Face it, Lat 360, you're not welcome. What are you going to do about that?

This is a disaster for a historic neighborhood surrounded by iconic churches, memorials and schools. A horrible idea, and one which needs to be assessed legally -- having a nightclub within that close of a proximity to a school (Leman) may be a vioation of local codes.

This proposed tenant (bar/restaurant/entertainment complex) will pose a grave hazard to 15 Broad St. and to the neighborhood including NY Stock Exchange/Federal Hall. With a large crowd, drunk people/partiers, etc., this will pose a FIRE hazard as well as a host of other hazards including potential terrorist threats to NY Stock Exchange and Federal Hall. This proposed tenant does NOT belong at 23 Wall St.
