Jay Z Powers Entire TriBeCa Block


Jay Z foots the bill to power a generator for his entire block in the wake of Hurricane Sandy...

From Page Six
TriBeCa neighbors are hailing Jay-Z as a Hurricane Sandy guardian angel. Though Jay is said to have sought refuge uptown, and was spotted with BeyoncĂ© and Blue Ivy at the Mandarin Oriental following the storm, the word around TriBeCa is that the hip-hop mogul and part owner of the Brooklyn Nets bought a generator to power 195 Hudson St., where he and BeyoncĂ© own a nearly $7 million loft. The Web site TribecaCitizen.com also noted the chatter, but when we put it to Jay’s rep, we simply got a “no comment.” Yesterday, Jay, along with Bruce Springsteen, performed at a rally for President Obama in Ohio, leading up to today’s election.
