FORECAST FOR THE SOUTH STREET SEAPORT MUSEUM? SUN AND CLOUDS

The South Street Seaport Museum's galleries on Fulton Street have been closed for more than a year. Nevertheless, Jonathan Boulware, interim president of the museum, remains optimistic about the museum's future. " There's nothing that I can say specifically about it, but there's a lot of horsepower behind the effort," he said. "I think a solution will be found." Come Oct. 29, it will be two years since Superstorm Sandy caused the South Street Seaport Museum to founder, undermining the previously successful efforts of its then-steward, the Museum of the City of New York, to mount interesting exhibits, balance the budget and increase membership. The electrical system in the museum's galleries at 12 Fulton St. still has not been repaired. It will be one year as of July 5 since the Museum of the City of New York ceased to manage the South Street Seaport Museum, as it had been doing since the fall of 2011. Though the museum's Fulton Street galleries have been closed since April 7, 2013, its shops on Water Street - Bowne Stationers and Bowne Printers - are open. On Pier 16, the Ambrose lightship and the museum's 103-year-old, steel-hulled barque, Peking, receive visitors, and the 1885 schooner Pioneer takes them for harbor sails.
However, visitation is down this year, Boulware said. "We are definitely noticing that the congestion
on Fulton Street has caused a drop in numbers of visitors to Ambrose and Peking, but we're working with Howard Hughes to open that up," he said.

"There are things that Hughes gets right and there are things that Hughes gets wrong and I think the installation of food trucks in a historic district is not an ideal match," he said. "Food trucks have their time and place for sure, but this isn't it."
Part of finding a solution for a viable Seaport Museum is reducing the fleet to a size that is manageable, according to Boulware, "and right now, the size of the fleet is not manageable for any manifestation of the Seaport Museum that I can imagine," he said. "At some point, we're going to have to make some hard decisions."
As has been said for some time, Boulware made it clear that Peking would have to go "when a suitable home can be found for her," but other ships will probably also have to be divested. Boulware declined to say which ones.
The museum's 1893 fishing schooner, Lettie G. Howard, will only make occasional appearances at Pier 16, but that's for other reasons.
"She is not handy enough - meaning nimble - to manage the currents on the East River," said Boulware. "So for years, actually, she either had to come and go with the tide, or for a long time she was up at the 79th Street boat basin. There are limitations that make it difficult for Lettie to operate from the Seaport so that she's typically only at the Seaport when she's in a period of lay up." Lettie G. Howard has been spending some time in Atlantic Basin and at Pier 25 and occasionally, has been making appearances elsewhere as she did this past Saturday at the start of the Bay Ridge Community Eco Dock's 2014 season. The flexible, floating dock at the 69th Street pier in Bay Ridge allows large and mid-sized historical, cultural, commercial and educational vessels and smaller human-powered boats to tie up. It also serves as a platform for environmental education programs. The Lettie is manned by a South Street Seaport Museum crew captained by Aaron Singh. There are also New York Harbor School students on board and volunteers from the Seaport Museum. In 1989, Lettie G. Howard was declared a National Historic Landmark. In 2013, she went to shipyard in Portland, Maine for $250,000 worth of repairs, money that was largely raised through the efforts of the Museum of the City of New York. Ambrose has also been repaired recently and Wavertree is scheduled to go to shipyard this summer for six months of repairs. Perhaps the future of the South Street Seaport Museum will have been determined by the time she returns. - Terese Loeb Kreuzer  | |

South Street Seaport
CB1'S SEAPORT COMMITTEE GETTING NEW LEADERSHIP
 | | At a Community Board 1 Seaport/Civic Center Committee meeting, Marco Pasanella and John Fratta listened to a presentation from Phillip St. Pierre, general manager of the South Street Seaport for The Howard Hughes Corporation. (Photo: Terese Loeb Kreuzer) |
John Fratta, chairperson of Community Board 1's Seaport/Civic Center Committee, will leave the community board at the end of July. Catherine McVay Hughes, chairperson of Community Board 1, will appoint a new chairperson for the committee, but has not yet announced who that will be.
Marco Pasanella, owner of Pasanella & Son Vintners at 115 South St., is currently vice chairman of the Seaport/Civic Center Committee. He is also founder and chairperson of the Old Seaport Alliance, a consortium of merchants in the South Street Seaport. He is presumably in line for the Seaport Committee chairmanship, though others may also be considered.
Community Board 1's Seaport/Civic Center Committee has been on the front line of the battle for the future of the South Street Seaport. It will ultimately play an important role in advancing or blocking approvals that would be needed for future development since much of the Seaport is publicly owned property, some of which is landmarked. The disposition of this property would have to go through a ULURP (Uniform Land Use Review Procedure) process, and Community Board 1 is the first stop in those proceedings.
John Fratta had been outspoken in his criticisms of The Howard Hughes Corporation's tactics in advancing its plans for real estate development of the South Street Seaport. He was among those who repeatedly asked HHC for a master plan for its development efforts, which HHC at first said it didn't have, but in any event, never provided.
In December 2011, when HHC first quietly showed its plans for a new glass, shopping mall on Pier 17 to some members of the Community Board, Fratta registered his reservations and his suspicions. "We know what you want to do for Pier 17 and it sounds very sexy and everything else," he said at the time. "What about the rest of the Seaport?" He said that Howard Hughes claimed that "because of the economic crisis that we're in, they're not ready to move on anything other than Pier 17."
Fratta went on record at that time of being in favor of using the Tin Building and the New Market Building to house the New Amsterdam Market so that it could operate year round. "It may be premature, but down the road we should start looking at a resolution urging or demanding, really, that those stalls be used for this purpose so we don't have to worry about something else coming in over there," Fratta said on Dec. 19, 2011. "We know how important it is to the community."
Ultimately, on March 20, 2013, the Howard Hughes Corporation did receive approval from City Council to demolish the existing shopping mall on Pier 17 and to erect a new shopping mall. And finally after its hand was forced by an article in The New York Times on Nov. 18, 2013, on Nov. 19, Howard Hughes revealed that it wanted to demolish the New Market Building and erect a 50-story luxury hotel/residential tower on that site. It also wanted to move the Tin Building and make other changes to the South Street Seaport.
In the aftermath of that revelation and a Town Hall meeting on Jan. 13, 2014 at which most speakers expressed opposition to the Howard Hughes plans, a Seaport Working Group was formed to hammer out non-binding guidelines for the development of the South Street Seaport.
It met for 11 weeks. Fratta was a member of that working group.
Among the Seaport Working Group's guidelines was one that explicitly addressed the subject of a tower. "Buildings developed on properties adjoining the South Street Seaport Historic District should not adversely impact neighborhood scale and character," the guideline says. Under that, the task force stated that, "Alternatives to the proposed 50-story tower should be sought and any building on the New Market site should be contextual with the buildings within the South Street Seaport Historic District."
Howard Hughes has yet to reveal its explicit proposals for the New Market Building, the Tin Building or for a tower in the Seaport. By the time it does so, John Fratta will be gone .

"Cond� Nast starts its migration downtown," Capital New York, 6/30/14. "Cond� Nast began its move to downtown Manhattan today," Capital New York reports. The news was announced on the publisher's Twitter feed. "The company's technology group, archives team and Cond� Nast Entertainment all started working Monday at 222 Broadway, not far from 1 World Trade Center, where the rest of Cond� Nast's workforce will begin moving this November. About 300 employees relocated from 1166 Avenue of the Americas to floors 15, 16 and 17 at 222 Broadway, a Cond� Nast spokesperson told Capital." For the complete article, click here.
"With a total of seven tenants, 1 WTC now 56 percent leased," The Real Deal, 6/30/14. "With three recent leases, the Durst Organization and the Port Authority seem to be breaking out of a three-year slump to fill One World Trade Center," says The Real Deal. "The first new tenant after the dry spell was KiDS Creative, followed by BMB Group, a London-based wealth management company. Legends Hospitality is setting up its headquarters in the building and will also run One World Trade Center's 1,766-foot-high observatory." That means that seven tenants have signed leases in the 3 million-square-foot building, with more potential deals in the works. The building is now 56 percent leased.

Letters to the Editor
HOWARD HUGHES NO SAVIOR FOR THE SEAPORT; HOT AIR BALLOONS?
 | Lawn chairs and fake grass on Fulton Street in the South Street Seaport.
(Photo: Terese Loeb Kreuzer) |
To the editor:
I love your coverage of the Seaport. Howard Hughes has yet to make a decision or choice that reflects they really care about the historical beauty and history of the Seaport. They have yet to demonstrate that they intuitively understand who lives here. It breaks my heart to see what they are doing there. While the Seaport does need an infusion of something new, based on what I've seen and read Howard Hughes is not it.
Lorraine (last name withheld at letter writer's request)
To the editor:
Thank you for your incisive and ongoing coverage of excessive noise caused by tourist helicopter flights originating in Lower Manhattan. ( "Helicopter and ferry noise plague downtown residents," DPNYC, 6/27/14) These flights make life unbearable for thousands of New York City residents. Many cannot have conversations in their own living rooms - or in their children's bedrooms - without having to pause every two minutes because they cannot be heard until a helicopter passes. These flights are enjoyed by tourists for about 15 minutes. But they imperil the safety, security and quality of life of New York City residents -- every day, all day long. Allowing this to continue is ridiculously wrong, of course. And every elected official representing Lower Manhattan has agreed that these tourist helicopter flights should be curtailed or banned. But the flights  persist. Why? Money is the only justification, according to City Hall. From the numbers I've seen, these flights bring pathetically little income to New York City - far less than can be justified by this relentless persecution of local residents. But, hey, the budget is tight, and we need all we can get. So here's my modest proposal... 1- Ban tourist helicopters from all New York City airspace, immediately. 2- Allow airborne tours only by HOT AIR BALLOONS. Balloons are quiet, non-intrusive, even picturesque. Tourists can get their thrills and photos, no one is disturbed, New York City harvests tourist income, and local residents can admire the balloons - rather than resent the noise of helicopters, and spend years fighting to abolish them. Only half in jest, Ro Sheffe
