How helpful would a rendering of a 12-story building actually be? From the Trib: "Four years later the developer bought 250 Water Street for $180 million from Milstein Properties, a developer that had repeatedly failed over the years to win approvals for a tall building on the site. But its attempts led CB1 and others to fight a winning battle in 2003 to downzone the site to a maximum building height of 120 feet and thwart any future attempts for an out-of-scale project. It was a victory they say they won’t abandon, despite their desire to help the South Street Seaport Museum, which has yet to recover from Superstorm Sandy." — James on Tower proposed for 250 Water, aka the mercury site

Seems like fried chicken places don't do well in this area. There used to be two Popeyes nearby and a KFC near Wall St. — ChickenLover on Dirty Bird To Go on Chambers is closed

Another Yea for Krispy Kreme - I love fried air. — maryna lansky on Seen & Heard: 787 Coffee new and open on Pearl
Why is there no rendering of what could be built as of right on this site? Are we expected to assume that the only choice to be made is between the over-sized structures presented? The street -level renderings are also remarkable, as if no one looked up, no one stood more than half a block away, and no tall building ever cast a shadow. A picture is worth a thousand words, they say. I would dismiss these renderings with only a few. — David Sheldon on Tower proposed for 250 Water, aka the mercury site

Reminder that the parking lot at 250 Water Street is located in the South Street Seaport Historic District (protecting its low-scale character). In 2003 it was down zoned. It is NOT a receiving site for Seaport air rights. The former owners (Milstein) proposed nine different plans over 25 years that were rejected by the City. Our Seaport Coalition has a better plan. http://www.seaportcoalition.com/ — Michael Kramer on Tower proposed for 250 Water, aka the mercury site
