Tin Building
The Tin Building by Jean-Georges is a sprawling new culinary destination located in lower Manhattan’s historic Seaport. The culmination of chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s lifetime desire to open his own marketplace and the most ambitious project of his career to date, the 53,000-square foot building is unlike anything else in the city. Inspired by the myriad of flavors that define him as a chef (from his childhood in France to traveling and working throughout America, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, Mexico, and Europe), the immersive concept is also Vongerichten’s tribute to the Seaport’s now-shuttered Fulton Fish Market, which operated by the waters of the East River for nearly 200 years.
Set under the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge, the two-story building offers an unexpected array of culinary experiences designed to delight and engage the senses–including multiple restaurants with open kitchens, innovative retail concepts, and an impeccably stocked central market with locally sourced seafood, meats, cheeses, seasonal produce, chef-grade pantry staples, and rare ingredients.
