The folks behind the New Amsterdam Market have been pushing to turn the Seaport's historic Fulton Fish Market and Tin Building into a public food market, and they've garnered the backing of some big industry names. Daniel Boulud, Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Bill Telepan, and seven other star chefs took part in a video to voice their support for the project. New Amsterdam will be submitting a petition to City Council by the end of the month. [Crain's; previously]
