Moxies and Grace by Nia Are Both Coming to Boston's Seaport District

It looks like two new dining and drinking spots may be coming to the Boston waterfront.

A tweet from @FortPointer indicates (via a page from @FPNA_Boston) that Moxies hopes to open in the Ora building at 899 Congress Street and Grace by Nia plans to open at One Seaport Square, with the former being a full-service restaurant offering brunch, lunch, and dinner and having both indoor and outdoor seating, and the latter being a spot offering Southern comfort food and featuring live jazz. The notice also mentions that plans for Fort Point Tavern to open in the former Oak + Rowan space (which was mentioned in an earlier article here) have been "withdrawn for consideration," at least for now, while plans for Marcelino's Boutique Bar to open in the Former Daily Catch space--which had also been mentioned here earlier--are still in the works.

@FortPointer states that all of these were discussed in a Tuesday night meeting.

[March 8, 2023 update: Universal Hub reports that the Boston Licensing Board has approved plans for Grace by Nia to open in the Seaport District, and that it will be "a supper club and speakeasy with a full menu."]
