Popularity of the non-Times Square TKTS Booths?

Is there a report that states how much business the Southstreet Seaport TKTS Booth generates? And how much the booth that was in the WTC generated? I'm curious if it is worth it to TDF to open a booth in a 3rd location...

If I end up doing a trip during the holidays, I always avoid the Times Square booth and go down to the Seaport one. There is usually a line, but nowhere near as bad as Times Square.

How is the line in Brooklyn?

There are already 3 locations. The 3rd is in Brooklyn.

This is purely anecdotal (I can't begin to speak to the fiscal "worth it") but my take from frequently passing and using both the Seaport and Brooklyn booths is that they do a healthy enough business and perform a great service to the city, the theatre and its goers. There are never huge lines there (which from the consumer perspective is great!) but they do a business.

Never encountered lines at the Brooklyn location. Quick ride on the A train. Matinee tickets available there (and the Seaport location) the day before which I have found to be very helpful.
