A Waterside Outdoor Bar Just Opened At Seaport’s 53,000-Square Foot Marketplace
Fancy a waterside cocktail, anyone? Last October the Seaport’s historic Tin Building transformed into a gorgeous culinary marketplace after eight years of planning and building, and this summer it received a brand new addition–a stunning outdoor bar right on the water!
Conveniently dubbed Outdoor Bar, the new spot is making this summer a much sweeter one, offering refreshing cocktails that will make your mouth water just from the sound of them, such as the Bourbon Apricot Cooler, made with Bourbon, apricot, lime, and mint, and the Summer Berry Mule, with Bourbon, blueberry, blackberry, lime, and ginger beer.
There will also be select wines, beers, non-alcoholic options, and, our personal fav, bubbly on tap!
And don’t worry–delicious European sandwiches ensure your stomach stays full and you don’t get too tipsy, like the Jambon Beurre with Paris ham, Emmentaler cheese, cornichons, and mustard on a baguette, and Mortadella & Provolone, made with pecorino Toscano and arugula on ciabatta.
The Tin Building by Jean-Georges is a 53,000-square foot marketplace inspired by Jean-Georges’ childhood in Alsace, and the success of his restaurants in Bangkok, Hong Kong, Singapore, the US, and Europe. Six full-service dining venues make up the space along with casual and to-go options, bars, and a marketplace.

You’ll be able to live out your childhood dreams and launch down a slide into 500,000 translucent balls at Pop In The City, which is returning this weekend.

Bouncers should expect NYC-themed fun with big apples, big buildings, big pizza, and other NYC icons made in inflatable art, as well as a “glitterball dome” inspired by Studio 54 with a performance stage, fun lighting and special effects, 100 shimmering disco balls and more.
There will also be DJs, emcees and musicians who will keep the excitement bouncin’.
“New York has seen some pretty wild things, but we don’t think there’s ever been anything like this before,” said Josh Kinnersley, from XL Event Lab. “We’ve taken inspiration from the city and mashed it together with balls of every shape and size. It’s an ode to the orb, a rejoicing of the round. You’ll have a ball!”
Pop In The City will be in the plaza adjacent to Greeley Square Park on Broadway between 32nd and 33rd Streets. Tickets start at $20. It’ll be up through Sunday, September 3.
Raising Cane’s NYC finally opens its flagship in Times Square
For years, those famous fried chicken fingers from Raising Cane’s were elusive to New Yorkers—that is, until now! The Baton Rouge-based fast-food chain has finally come to NYC with a big world flagship in Times Square, which opened today, Tuesday, June 27, at 1501 Broadway.

Raising Cane’s Times Square flagship measures over 8,000 square feet and also includes tons of merch, NYC-themed decor on its walls, and there is Texas toast-themed seating with Cane’s sauce-inspired coffee tables, because of course. Cane’s current mascot, Cane III, has been made into a doggy Statue of Liberty, and the restaurant’s disco ball decor is adorned in crystals from an NYC-based design studio as a sparkly homage to the New Year’s Eve ball that drops in Times Square. Ordering kiosks are also located throughout the Restaurant to help meet the demands of busy tourists and on-the-go commuters.
Take a peek inside:
According to restaurant reps, “Customers will immediately be transported to a ‘Chicken Finger state of mind’ upon entering the restaurant.”
“The Times Square Global Flagship marks a monumental moment for our brand,” said Raising Cane’s Founder Todd Graves in a statement. “Not only is this our first within New York City, but it provides yet another opportunity to serve our craveable Chicken Finger meals to those who love us and those who have yet to try. I founded this brand almost 27 years ago, and since then we have opened many Restaurants. I am personally excited for all that is to come in New York and across the world for Cane’s.”
The brand has more than 740 Restaurants across 36 states.
The Times Square location is at Broadway and 44th Street and is open from 9am to 1am daily, with an additional hour of service from 1 to 2am for orders placed at the walk-up window for carryout only.
