"At Tin Building, a splurge-worthy experience includes an exclusive fireworks viewing area on the South Plaza patio; the main event is the food: dim sum from House of the Red Pearl, steak frites and Gruyère cheeseburgers from T. Brasserie, lobster rolls, specialty pizza from The Frenchman’s Dough, and other Jean‑Georges favorites, including Tin Building’s signature cookies; tickets also include access to the open bar." - Alex Erdekian
"At the Seaport's Tin Building I wandered through gourmet food stalls and artisanal market vendors — a delightful cluster of gourmet eateries and charming retail that makes for a perfect casual lunch or snack stop." - Sophie Mendel
"Jean‑Georges’s Wonka‑style ode to French and New York ingredients at the new South Street Seaport lives up to the hype—I could spend hours wandering the stalls and shopping for food products; the abcV outpost makes a great lunch meeting spot and The House of the Red Pearl, his Chinese-inspired restaurant tucked away on the second floor, is the definition of a hidden gem away from the tourists." - Edward Barsamian
"A giant Seaport food hall led by celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten that opened in 2022 and cost close to $200 million to build out. Crain’s New York reported that landlord Seaport Entertainment Group Inc. said it had a “$33 million loss” for the venue in 2024, and the operator now plans to revamp the food-hall footprint to save money: closing one of the two commissary kitchens and shuttering one of the lesser‑frequented stalls. Earlier in January the operation laid off 100 workers after conducting employment-authorization checks, as reported by Gothamist. The same landlord is also behind the development’s large new restaurant and other forthcoming attractions, which factors into broader site-level planning." - Nadia Chaudhury
"A Jean-Georges Vongerichten-associated food-and-hospitality property run by the same Seaport Entertainment Group that is the landlord for the forthcoming installation; mentioned as part of the landlord's portfolio at the Seaport." - Nadia Chaudhury
