Bryant Park Grill intends to keep operating following the expiration of its lease on April 30. The owner, Michael Weinstein, is pursuing legal action against Bryant Park Corporation, alleging manipulation of the bidding process in favor of the Seaport Entertainment Group. BPC reportedly offered Seaport significant financial incentives not available to other bidders, potentially jeopardizing the Grill's operations and employees. Established in 1995, Bryant Park Grill is a well-loved fixture in New York Cityâs dining landscape, with many long-serving staff members.
According to a press release sent out by Bryant Park Grill, BPC's Dan Bierderman admitted BPC offered $2 million to Seaport for capital improvements and over a year of free rent giveaways not offered to Bryant Park Grill or the other finalists.
Bryant Park Grill first opened its doors in 1995...with half of the Grill's 250 employees have been on the team for at least a decade, while one in five has been there for 25 years.
