The folks from Grand Banks and Drift In in Hudson River Park are seeking a liquor license for the Holy Ground space at 109 West Broadway, in the basement underneath the newly opened Bluestone Lane. (The entrance is on Reade.) They are on the CB1 executive board agenda for August 17.

It doesn’t have a name yet, but will be a tavern of some kind operated by Alex and Miles Pincus, who also have Pilot, a wooden schooner docked in Brooklyn Heights; Island Oyster on Governors Island; and Seaworthy in New Orleans, which as I recall is where the brothers are from originally. Seaworthy is a brick-and-mortar restaurant and I include pictures of it here since I can imagine that subterranean space in this salty decor — in fact it’s not too far off the Holy Ground theme.

I wish they would take something bigger and more prominent, but this will have to do!

“After years of searching, we’ve finally found the perfect place to open our first brick-and-mortar outpost in New York City,” the brothers wrote in an email to subscribers. “That’s right… indoors, 365 days a year, rain or shine!”

If you love their places, you can sign a quick letter in support here.
