This historic harbor is home to the former Fulton Fish Market, the Seaport Museum, the country’s largest privately owned fleet of historic ships and a shopping mall with retail stores and restaurants. It is a cultural institution which is dedicated to tell the story of the rise of New York as a port city and its crucial role in the development of the United States. The Museum uses its historic buildings and ships to provide interactive exhibits, education, and experiences. It hosts outdoor concerts during the summer, as well as a range of lectures and public programs.
