As a follow-up to our post from earlier this month, it sounds as though numerous South Street Seaport bars, particularly the ones along Front Street (Stella, Nelson Blue, Bin 220, Keg 229), will be closed for several more months.  According to local community leaders, some of the historic buildings housing these Front Street bars will be under Restricted Use until March/April of 2013.  Only at that time can the whole scale renovations begin.  In the meantime, you can enjoy libations in that area at Jeremy’s Ale House and Meade’s, the two bars in the area that re-opened within a few weeks after Hurricane Sandy.
