In a recent government meeting, officials discussed the establishment of a new dispensary at 598 Broadway, a location designated as joint live-work quarters for artists. The conversation highlighted the importance of community engagement, as officials confirmed that all tenants in the building had been notified about the upcoming dispensary.

One official noted that they had provided their contact information to residents to foster communication and build relationships, although they reported receiving no direct feedback from the tenants thus far. The landlord facilitated the notification process, ensuring that all residents were informed of the plans to move forward with the dispensary.

The meeting underscored the necessity of maintaining open lines of communication with the community, particularly in spaces that serve both residential and commercial purposes. As the project progresses, officials expressed their commitment to engaging with the residents to address any concerns that may arise.
