WHO WE ARE

Friends of South Street Seaport (FOSSS) is a neighborhood organization that strongly believes public land should not be privatized, and as such is a violation of the community’s right to enjoy existing public assets. Altering or moving existing buildings at the Seaport and its surrounds destroys its historical context. These principles should be the cornerstones for any future development of the Historic District. Responsible development takes into account these principles resulting in a vision that protects and elevates the national treasure that is our South Street Seaport.
