Rendering for new Battery Maritime Building

Last Updated February 28, 2012 at 1:55 pm

NYCEDC completed a renovation of the Battery Maritime Building (BMB) in the spring of 2005 in order to prepare the space for further development.

The landmark structure is located on the southern tip of Manhattan adjacent to the Whitehall Ferry Terminal.

The updates to the site included the restoration and stabilization of the exterior facades and roof of the building. The BMB contains three ferry slips, with one slip reserved for private ferry operations and the other for service to Governor’s Island.
