Floating Bar, Grand Banks at Pier 25, Is Open for the Season - Eater NY
"Grand Banks is a floating restaurant located on the Sherman Zwicker, a 142-foot sail-powered cod fishing schooner. It is docked at Pier 25 and was transformed into a restaurant by Alex and Miles Pincus after acquiring it from the Maine Maritime Museum. The venue quickly became popular, attracting restaurant prowlers, hipsters, and Wall Street patrons, leading to challenges in maintaining supplies and operations. The restaurant is part of the Crew hospitality group, which operates several other bar-restaurants in Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Governor's Island." - Paul Greenberg
