South Street Seaport Gets Sporty

ESPN, one of the global leaders in sports programming, is opening its first New York City studio with a 19,000 square-foot facility at the South Street Seaport's Pier 17. The network also plans to activate components throughout the Seaport, which includes rooftop programming.

Overall, the Seaport is in the middle of a renaissance as a major destination within Manhattan, and multiple hotels are opening in the area to accommodate incoming events and meeting groups.
