2. Spider-Man Saved One of The Ferries

The Staten Island Ferry is the backdrop of countless television shows and films including Working Girl (1987), The Dark Knight (2008), and Sex and the City. The scenic view of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, and countless other New York monuments makes it the perfect filming location.

One of the most recent, and most exciting, additions to the ferry’s long list of film roles is in the 2017 Spider-Man: Homecoming. In this film, our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man saves the ferry from certain destruction by holding it together with his homemade synthetic webbing and his superhuman strength. Hopefully, for the people of New York, we’ll never actually need the help of Spider-Man.
