Staten Island Ferry Staten Island Ferry https://www.siferry.com/ The Staten Island Ferry is a free municipal passenger ferry that runs between the Whitehall Terminal in lower Manhattan and the St George Terminal in Staten Island. The ferry is the only non-vehicular mode of transportation between Staten Island and Manhattan, and transports approximately 70,000 passengers per day. They currently average between 23-24 million passengers per year. The Staten Island Ferry is one of the last remaining vestiges of an entire ferry system in New York City that transported people between Manhattan and its future boroughs long before any bridges were built. Early ferries operated by Cornelius Vanderbilt, the Richmond Turnpike Company, and the Staten Island Railway operated between 1810-1910. New York City took over ownership and operations in 1906. The ferry operates year-round, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with departures every 15-30 minutes depending on the time of day. Guests sometimes get confused between Statue Cruises and the Staten Island Ferry. We are not related! The Staten Island Ferry will go past the Statue of Liberty and guests would be able to see it from the boat, but they will not dock at Liberty or Ellis Island. They specifically provide transportation from Staten Island to Manhattan only, and do not provide any other types of cruises. The Staten Island/Whitehall Street Ferry Terminal is only a 5-minute walk from Castle Clinton in Battery Park. Tell guests to walk along the shoreline path, keep the water on their left, and they will see the Statue Cruises boats and our security tent as soon as they pass the Coast Guard station and the tall ship Clipper City. .

Provide a brief statement of the municipality’s vision for downtown revitalization. Downtown Staten Island is experiencing an unprecedented amount of interest from around the region and the world, including substantial public and private investment. As this influx of businesses, residents, visitors, and investors began, our community understood the absolute need for a guiding strategic vision to allow for smart growth. Community-based and civic organizations, elected officials, government agencies, educational institutions, businesses, property owners, and residents have come together in many ways to ensure that all points of view are represented and to ensure an equitable and well-balanced view of the area’s future. With its proximity to both the rest of New York City and New Jersey, Downtown Staten Island is poised to become a regional hub. There is a consensus vision of a thriving, mixed-use, mixed-income, multi-cultural waterfront community serving not only as a destination itself, but also as a vibrant connector to the rest of Staten Island, the rest of the City, and the world.

Levinson Icon Mentor Region 2 Urban Transportation Research Center City College, New York and Transportation Consultant Wallingford, Connecticut February 24, 2010 2 1. INTRODUCTION Bus rapid transit systems are increasingly being developed throughout the world. In New York City, a comprehensive analysis of options led to New York City Transit implementing Select Bus Service on Fordham Road. A similar service will be installed on First and Second Avenues in Manhattan, Nostrand Avenue in Brooklyn, and Hylan Boulevard in Staten Island. Bus rapid transit proposals have been set forth for Central Ave and I-287 in Westchester County, and a BRT study is underway for Route 110 in Suffolk County. NJ TRANSIT operates BRT service along Springfield and Bloomfield Avenues and is exploring service along several other corridors in Northern New Jersey. The discussion that follows builds upon these actions and proposals to develop the broad outlines of a regional bus rapid transit system for New York City and its environs. The goal is to develop a system that complements and extends the reach of the region’s many rail transit lines. 2. CONTEXT AND ANTECEDENTS Developing a regional bus rapid transit (BRT) system for the New York City region is a challenging and difficult task.
