a comment there will be no tall seaport tower posted on november 6 2015 by saveourseaport download press release new york ny november 6 2015 there will be no tall seaport tower on the new market site says an howard hughes corporation hhc spokeswoman that is not happening as quoted in thursday s new york post save our seaport s michael kramer said that the grassroots group was encouraged by today s announcement both the seaport working group and manhattan community board one have strongly opposed inappropriate development at the historic old fish market site we echo their call to extend the south street seaport historic district to include the new market building that further there be no tower on that site and ask for a master planning process to find a way to re use this unique structure and its location to honor its maritime history with a water dependent or enhancing use david sheldon of save our seaport added there is a certain sense of promise as we see our years of advocacy for the south street seaport historic district finally bearing fruit save our seaport a grassroots organization developed by south street seaport museum volunteers and former staff and joined by local concerned citizens is fighting the howard hughes corporation s hhc proposed redevelopment plans at new york city s historic port which would otherwise result in debasement of the city s only lasting tribute to the city s seafaring heritage the nyc economic development corporation had been charged with maintaining the new market building since the relocation of the fish market to hunters point in 2005 the seaport speaks workshop attended by all stakeholders back then made a series of recommendations which fell on deaf ears during the bloomberg administration unfortunately the new market building has been allowed to fall into an extreme state of disrepair post sandy nycedc has just announced that they will make emergency repairs in november to stabilize and maintain the building and the pier infrastructure after emerging from bankruptcy court in 2010 the howard hughes corporation was given a sweetheart lease deal by the nycedc to spearhead seaport redevelopment hhc pays the city less than 3 50 psf while demanding market rents from their retail tenants according to the new york post article the original plan which had at times called for a tower as tall as 50 stories drew significant opposition from community and preservation groups who vowed to derail it that may have worked save our seaport continues to call for a transparent and public planning process to find a new use for this iconic building and site the seaport should reclaim its history as nyc s maritime market district a place of exchange where the east river meets the harbor with the museum and its ships its historic buildings and the water s edges supported reinvented and reconnected to other citywide efforts along the harbor district the south street seaport district is unique and
