S.O.S. Save our Seaport

During the Winter of 2011 the South Street Seaport Museum closed its doors to the public. Since March the Historic Bowne Print Shop, tours of the Tall Ships: Peking and Wavertree, The Hellen McAllister Tugboat, Ambrose Lightship and sailboats Lettie G. and Pioneer are no longer open to the public. Attempts have been made to send the modest collection of ships representing New York's Maritime History away from New York City's downtown.
Join the Many Volunteers that have preserved these traditions of nautical wood working, printing, sailing, and educating youth about the East River's Ecology rally to re open the museum and the ships. If you can not attend the rally, join Save Our Seaport and see how you can get involved.
