There’s a lot of buzz about the expanded 5 borough ferry service Mayor Bill de Blasio announced in his State of the City address. Gothamist has a map of what that system would look like, which would connect Soundview in the Bronx to East 90th Street on Manhattan, Astoria to Roosevelt Island, Long Island City to Manhattan, South Brooklyn to Lower Manhattan and Staten Island, and a proposed route from Coney Island to Staten Island to Wall Street.
De Blasio has promised that the ferry fare will be the same price as the subway, lower than the current fare on the East River Ferry. Gothamist writes that the ferry service will “likely be the largest municipal ferry service in the United States, in terms of passenger use.” Read about the financing on Gothamist.
