Seamen's Church Institute

As the Seamen’s Church Institute developed important roots in the maritime worker’s world, South Street Seaport had become a focus point in the lower Manhattan. Because of the neighborhoods’ rapid changing and growing rate, the urban edge condition is blurred, and can be defined in an unconventional way. Here we propose a “no boundary” condition in the way in which that there is no real physical edge to the artificial land. Thus, we can break out from the typical bar like piers.
