Why should new yorkers care about saving the south street seaport?
The Seaport, the original commercial heart of New York City, is a rare enclave of early 19th Century buildings that has been named one of America’s 11 most endangered historic places by the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
Why does the South Street Seaport Museum matter?
The anchor of the Seaport District, the museum is a collection of historic ships on Pier 16 in the East River, and a set of irreplaceable historic buildings—the original World Trade Center—that house its collection of maritime artifacts, library, and shops. Together they tell the story of the rise of New York as a port city and its critical role in the development of the United States.
