Today's riddle: Why did the man leave his watch in the bank? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Where Will Cell and Gene Therapy Go Next in Multiple Myeloma? (cancernetwork.com) — A leading myeloma specialist based at Mount Sinai's Blavatnik Family Chelsea Medical Center discusses how cutting-edge CAR T and gene therapies are reshaping treatment, including for patients referred from community practices. For Chelsea residents, it's a reminder that a nationally recognized center for advanced blood cancer care is right in the neighborhood, though experts stress ongoing challenges with side effects, access, and coordination of care.
2. Anti-Gay Hate Crime in Chelsea; Gunpoint Robbery in NoMad (chelseanewsny.com subscription) — Police are searching for two men after an anti-gay assault on two people near 28th Street in the Chelsea/NoMad area, investigated as a hate crime by the NYPD Hate Crime Task Force. In a separate incident, three masked robbers tied up workers and stole cash, DJ gear, and liquor from a NoMad cocktail bar, and detectives are asking anyone with tips to contact Crime Stoppers.
3. Two Pace Gallery Executives Resign In The Aftermath Of Major Layoffs (artforum.com) — Chelsea art watchers may notice changes at Pace Gallery, whose massive neighborhood flagship opened amid a rapid expansion just a few years ago. Two senior executives have now resigned following major layoffs and roster cuts, though both say they're moving to new roles while the gallery continues restructuring under CEO Marc Glimcher.
4. Appeals Judge Allows 'Pied-à-Terre' Tax Rollout While Legal Battle Continues (chelseanewsny.com subscription) — New York's controversial pied-à-terre tax on high-value second homes is moving ahead despite a temporary restraining order, after an appeals judge allowed rollout while lawsuits continue. A Chelsea resident is among homeowners suing over errors in the public tax list, as city officials extend deadlines for those contesting their inclusion and defend the surcharge as a way to fund services.
