How it works:

1. Bell icon in header — always visible, red badge shows unread count
2. Tap bell → notification drawer slides up (like all your other drawers)
3. "Tonight in Your Nabe" is the hero card at top — the signature notification that no other app has
4. Grouped by time — New, Earlier Today, Yesterday. Unread items have purple dot + blue highlight
5. Notification types — events (RSVP reminders), social (replies, likes), building (announcements), listings (saved search matches), safety (alerts resolved)
6. Settings link at bottom — opens the tier system preferences (what to send, what to batch, what to mute)
