Hercules Mulligan, a cocktail and spirits brand, is set to open its first taproom at 220 Front Street in Manhattan’s Financial District. The brand, named after the tailor, spy, and unsung hero of the American Revolution, has signed a ten-year lease for an 800-square-foot space with plans to focus on tastings, events, and merchandise sales.
Historic Front Street, a restoration project led by The Durst Organization, comprises 11 landmarked buildings and three new buildings, offering 95 residential rental units and 14 street-level retail stores. Hercules Mulligan is joining a diverse mix of retail tenants on the street, including Il Brigante, SUteiShi, The Dermatology Specialists, and Seaport Paw.

“Front Street has been a vibrant, bustling community for centuries,” said Jody Durst, president of the Durst Organization. “The Durst Organization has carefully restored a large stretch of these buildings to preserve their historic character while modernizing them to be great places to live, shop, sip, and dine. We are excited to welcome the Hercules Mulligan brand, which is sure to be well received by residents and tourists alike.”
220 Front Street is located a short walk from the Fulton Street subway station, which is served by the 2 and 3 trains.

I want a great place to live and eat, I will focus on it first and I made a decision right away: Thanks.
This historic street is just amazing and almost nothing like it is left in NY. This is why constantly chipping away at old buildings is a sad mistake.
